A short introduction
Why feng shui helps you buy or sell a home.
Feng shui comes from Eastern philosophy. The tradition holds that the home we live in shapes our fortune, health, prosperity and even the well-being of future generations. Today, many buyers and sellers consider it when choosing or selling a home.

Hi, I'm Cindy, founder of Olaie, a real estate broker, and a feng shui master. I offer full-service support for buying and selling homes. For clients who value feng shui, I assess homes with an expert's eye.
Feng shui comes from Eastern philosophy. Traditional feng shui holds that where you live affects your family's fortune, health, and wealth, even the well-being of future generations. That's why, in Chinese culture, a great home isn't called a luxury home, but a feng shui treasure.
Feng shui is used in Western real estate, too. In the mid-nineties, when Trump rebuilt the Trump International Hotel and Tower in New York, he hired a feng shui master. Reportedly, on that advice, the main entrance was turned to face Central Park, which the master saw as New York's Green Dragon. The metal globe out front was also placed on that advice, to deflect the restless energy of Columbus Circle traffic.
For sellers, I handle pricing, home presentation, marketing, and negotiation. I also suggest adjustments to furniture, layout, and outdoor spaces, based on your home and budget. When feng shui-minded buyers ask about orientation, the entry, or bedroom placement, I can give clear, convincing answers.
For buyers, I help you compare homes, assess price, location, and condition, plan your offer, and negotiate through closing. If feng shui matters to you, we'll analyze the orientation and layout, separating what simple furniture changes can fix from structural issues that cost more to change. These are best weighed before you make an offer.
Whether or not you believe in feng shui, Olaie offers complete, professional real estate service. If you're planning to buy or sell, I'd love to hear from you. Olaie. We know real estate, and feng shui.

What we add
Feng shui, read four ways.
Every home we show you gets a reading.
01 · The property's report
A reading of the home itself.
Land and surroundings, facing and build period, and the rooms you describe, checked against 60+ classical rules. Your first address's report is sent by email.
02 · Your household
Does the home fit the people in it?
Optional household birth-data match*: each person's Kua number (本命卦), and BaZi (八字) with a full birth date, read against the home. In every plan.
03 · AI master
Ask the reading anything.
Master Chen, an AI feng shui guide* and not a person, explains each finding and its classical remedies, in your language in every plan.
04 · Your broker, in person
Walked through by a broker trained in feng shui.
On Max plan, your broker, trained in feng shui, gives an in-person reading at the showing, checks the report's inputs and suggests changes outside and in; a wrong input gives a wrong finding, so we read it together.
Not interested in feng shui? Skip it; nothing else changes.
How a reading is made
Modern tech. Traditional feng shui.
A reading* is produced from public assessor records and open mapping data, and user measured property data, then scored against rules drawn from the classical texts.

Five stars, from the people we've represented.
Won a competitive Issaquah–Sammamish purchase
We worked with Cindy to purchase our home in the East side, and we couldn’t be happier with the experience. The Issaquah and Sammamish market can be very competitive, especially in desirable neighborhoods like this one. Cindy came prepared with detailed comps, clear pricing guidance, and a thoughtful offer strategy that helped us stay competitive without overpaying. Her advice on structure, timing, and contingencies made a real difference. Throughout the process, she was incredibly responsive and detail-oriented. During inspection and negotiations, she walked us through every step, explained our options clearly, and made sure we felt confident in our decisions. She coordinated seamlessly with escrow and the lender to keep everything on track toward closing. What stood out most was her calm, steady approach. Buying a home can be emotional, but Cindy balanced strategy with reassurance. We always felt she was advocating for us and protecting our interests. If you’re buying anywhere on the Eastside, Cindy is absolutely someone you want representing you. Highly recommend.

A clear pricing plan for a South Seattle sale
Cindy did an excellent job selling our home in South Seattle. From the very beginning, she provided a clear pricing strategy based on recent comps and local buyer activity, and helped us prioritize a few simple improvements that made the house show beautifully. She handled everything seamlessly — professional photos, listing setup, showing coordination, and buyer follow-ups. We had strong interest right away, and Cindy kept us updated throughout the process so we always knew where things stood. What really impressed us was her negotiation and problem-solving. She navigated inspection requests thoughtfully, protected our bottom line, and kept the transaction moving forward without unnecessary stress. Her communication was prompt and transparent, and we always felt she had our best interests in mind. Selling can be overwhelming, but Cindy made it feel organized and manageable. If you’re selling in Federal Way or anywhere in South King County, we highly recommend Cindy — professional, strategic, and results-driven.

Bought with her, then sold with her three years later
Cindy helped us to purchase this home 3 years before, and this year we choose Cindy to sell our home again was one of the best decisions we made. Her trustworthy and candid advice on pricing and home preparation made a significant difference. Cindy advocated tirelessly on our behalf, handling complex negotiations with skill and confidence, which resulted in us achieving the highest sale price on our block. Her integrity and dedication throughout the transaction earned our utmost trust and gratitude.
