As per title.. I notice south facing home will be slightly more pricier than other. I know Chinese fend shui recommend south facing house, but why ? Apart from that, what do you guys think about north facing house? No good?

the reason last time in china was house that faces north will get cold winds from siberia, so they prefer south. in malaysia , it doesnt matter. but best if north or south so that the afternoon hot sun does not hit the house walls making it warm.

From experience in fungshui for decades, this is very depends on geographical and location actually. In Malaysia facing KLCC is the best, if you're in the states then facing Wall St is the best.
I don't give free fungshui consultation, because my father told me if you're good in something, don't do it for free.

I searched before. Yup. Feng Shui origins from China. And most emperors and goverment officials last time got their house facing South due to cold winds from North. In Malaysia, we are super hot, so getting a house avoiding West Sun is the best.

why worry, another condo gonna block the sun soon anyway. just avoid evening sun (west) ... after cooking your house from 11am until 6pm, you don't want to come back to a nice hot sofa !!

Each individual have their own direction (according to fengshui basis on your DOB,etc) so if you believe in this then should consult the master before deciding which direction.
However for the sake of your properties value, go for South as it will boost your prices a little compared to your opposite neighbour.

For me, I am fine as long as not facing West. I generally prefer South or North. If can, I choose South, if no, I am fine to go for North. Sometimes, view is more important for me. I would skip South if it is facing cemetery or busy highways. I also notice more ppl prefer South facing.

Iinm, house entrance facing the side where the sun rises. Good for drying up laundry too. Evening will have a nice shady sun set.

For me, it is always good to have units with a nice view from our bedroom and balcony. For example any condo unit facing klcc and lake titiwangsa ...

When you choose direction mean you are believe in Feng Shui, all depend on your KUA number..

I have a friend who studied Chinese Medicine for many years who almost enrolled himself into Hei Loong Cheang ( 黑龙江)Chinese medicine studies and he said he is more into Western medicine. When we talk, he uses terms like blood pressure, hormones, cholesterol, etc etc.

The reason I ask about house facing direction is because I'm afraid later house facing north got no enough sunlight to dry up my cloths... Not mainly because of feng shui.. As long as the house number is not no.4 or anything then I'm fine with it..

Usually washing machine will spin dry your cloth, can be dried by hanging them under the fan.

Sunrise and sunset direction varies throughout the year. Generally in Malaysia, ... from March To September, the afternoon sun is in the north-west direction. from September to March, the afternoon sun is in the south-west direction. Anyone can google search and read the sun orientation.

Anyone can google search and read the sun orientation. We're slightly above the equator to the North, so the sun path still applies. March to September is generally the "hot" season of the year in Malaysia so if your house is North facing, you will get the sun all day on your North facade as long as the sun is out
