St. Joseph statue to help sell home

[PJ]

Hi everyone, can anyone please tell me where
I can find a small plastic St. Joseph statue?
I need 2 of them, one for me, one for a friend
also selling a home.

I'm putting my Fairfax, VA home on the market
very soon, and I read on this site that burying
St. Joseph in the yard helps get it sold.
I tried WalMart and some dollar stores around
TV, and they didn't have them.

Any ideas please?

Thanks much for any info!!!

Don't be cheap. It really works. You can find them on line. Perhaps at your local religious items store.

My house sold in 54 days. Thanks to St Joseph and a good broker.

Hi - you can find the kits for the St Joseph statues on Amazon.com. I think they run around $4.75 . If you Google St. Joseph Statues, several sites will come up.

Good luck in selling your home. Wishing you every blessing.

PJ:
I bought mine on amazon.com. It was about 2 inches high and contained some literature about a prayer and some intructions on how to bury it.

I paid $6.75 plus shipping fee of 3.99, (new). I notice there were some for 4.75 plus $2 shipping.
Best Wishes your both your homes sell quickly.

Got mine from ebay for $5 with no shipping. He's been in the ground for a week now and have a "showing" Friday afternoon!! Keep fingers crossed. I am SO READY for TV!:pepper2:

You'll get the same result by killing a chicken then running around the house 3times. LOL I know the feeling of wanting to sell and will do anything that might help your cause. Lots of luck whatever you do. Just don't be too greedy, and expect to sell for less than you think it is worth. I sold mine for less than I wanted but for what I thought I'd get in this market. By the way, from what I have been reading the market will get worse, not better in the months to come and I was happy to get what I got and get out while I could. Once you do and get here, you can relax and not worry about the real estate market.

You can buy them at most religious bookstores. The store in Belleview has them. It is located just as you are entering on 27-441 and is on the left. We have used it to sell six different houses. In several cases, it went to the first person looking at it. You have to believe and you must also price your house fairly.

I'm inclined to agree with Shimpy! I only did the St. Joseph thingy for conversation. I've been a RE broker for 30 years and I do not think a poor statue buried upside down in your backyard is gonna sell the house! Wish it were that easy.

Course I'm willing to try anything to get to TV!:wave:

Thanks to all of you who responded, I really
appreciate it! I followed the easy advice
to buy it on ebay and that's just what I did...
I bought 2 under the "Buy it Now".

Maybe burying St. Joseph works in part because
of the prayers said at the burial, and also
because every time you walk by where you
buried it, you'll be reminded of it, and say
another prayer. I imagine that's what I'll do anyway.

I wish all of you who are trying to sell
the best of luck!!!

I buried St. Joseph by the For Sale sign along with a little sand that we brought back from our lot in TV.

[scrapple]

I'm ready...what do I need to do?

Great move on your part! I believe the instructions say to bury St. Joseph, face down with his head pointed towards your front door. Also, after the sale of your home, you are suppose to dig him up and bring him to your new home and place him in area of prominence.

I followed the instructions and somone actually knocked on my door, wanting to buy my house. It wasn't even listed. Regretfully, I forgot to dig him up.

Don't plant him to close to the neighbor's house.

It might sell first :1rotfl::1rotfl::1rotfl:

St Joseph is one of the best on this list.
Umbrellas inside the house - you will drown the next time you swim; or, opening an umbrella indoors will bring you bad luck
No reds allowed - Don't wear red when there's lightning, or else it may strike you. Broken reflection - 7 years of bad luck if you break a mirror. (This one originated in the Middle Ages where mirrored glass was extremely expensive; anyone who broke the large mirror of the lord or lady of the land was costing them a lot of money and destroying something likely not replaceable. A person could be put in jail if the lord of the land was ****ed off enough.)
Don't let a black cat cross your path; it will bring you bad luck. (I suppose you could trip over a black cat in the dark and break your leg, but really the coat color of a cat has nothing to do with luck either way.)
When you are getting married, do not wear your wedding gown before the wedding or else your wedding will canceled
Stepping on a crack in the sidewalk will break your mother's back.
Don't walk under a ladder or else you'll have bad luck
Carry a rabbit's foot for good luck (unless you are the rabbit concerned)
Don't sweep at night or you'll have fewer blessings
Cover your mouth when you sneeze or else your soul will go out
Cover your mirror during thunder so that it will not break
Do not point with your hands at night or else your hands will get smaller
If one of your relatives dies and their eyes are still open, he or she is waiting for some of your family, relatives, or friends to die
If you are pregnant, eat bananas so that you can have twins
Marrying on Friday the 13th cursed your wedding from the start.
