Happy Halloween – Superstitions relating to buying or selling a home

Are you superstitious?

The following are superstitions relating to buying or selling a home.
1) The “Old Farmer’s Almanac” advises for good luck to bring along a new broom and salt on your first visit to your new home.
2) In the old South, porch ceilings were painted “haint blue” a soft blue green shade said to keep ghosts away.
3) Years ago it was common to place shoes or coins in a building’s foundation for good luck.
4) For a quick sale of your home, lore says to bury a statue of St. Joseph, up-side-down in the yard.

Happy Halloween!
