Since burying St Joesph yesterday my son has had two calls but no luck so far on selling. One person wanted to rent and the other wanted the address to drive by. Still 2 calls after no calls for weeks is good. Maybe the next one will be a buyer.

I was told to bury a statue of St. Joseph when I wanted to sell my house in Nova Scotia. I buried him right side up at first and a few months later I was told he was supposed to be upside down. I buried another one upside down. Three years later the house finally sold.

u gotta have it blessed and say the prayers

After the sale dig it up and put it on display in your new house

My mother's condo was on the market for nearly a year; I placed my little plastic statue way back under her kitchen cabinet and the condo sold within a month. My neighbor was anxious for a quick sale, she took my statue and placed it on her bookcase: had a contract within a week. Again, mysister-in-law's home is still on the market over a year later despite St. Joseph's intervention.

St. Joseph is the patron saint of home and family (as well as a happy death). As with anything of this nature, you've got to have some degree of faith and not treat it as a joke.

I've got a St Joseph statue--now what?

Mine says it doesn't matter how it is buried (upside down, right-side up, front yard,
back yard, etc)

Any suggestions? Do we bury it now or when the house goes up for sale?
Difficult to sell a house at the shore when there is snow on the ground!!

Help, I'm desperate!!

Re: BURYING ST. JOSEPH?????
 

Peggy - we just buried one on Thanksgiving too. Mine said it didn't matter where you buried it in the yard or how, but saying the prayer. I put mine out in a pretty area beside Crepe Myrtle and bird bath so I knew I could find it. Florida market is bad - but they do anticipate it will be one of the first to come back. Good luck to you in selling yours. We are thinking about reducing ours again.

Re: BURYING ST. JOSEPH?????
 

It is not the act of burying the statue that is the important aspect. The important aspect of the St. Joseph statue is praying for his intercession for the sale of your home. Not praying TO St. Joseph but asking him to PRAY FOR YOU to sell your home. The act of burying the statue I guess is the fun part, but the act of burying a statue will do absolutely nothing apart from a believing prayer. I was a Realtor for many years up north and it sure can't hurt. I have seen it work.....for what it is worth. I am a Catholic Christian and believe in the intercession of the Saints in heaven. :)

My house has been on the market since May, after reading all of these posts I googled St. Joseph Statue and lo and behold, you can actually buy a kit. Being brought up in an italian Catholic background, I have decided to take one of my many statues of St. Joseph I have in the house and bury him, or maybe I should buy a new one. My brother keeps tellin me we need a miracle, maybe this is just what we need.

Re: BURYING ST. JOSEPH?????
 

I agree with Cinlite..You must ask for St.Joe to help you, it is not like a coin in the fountain and the wish comes true..

I too buried Him back in NY..My house took 7 years to sell..I never thought it would sell..I am also a Catholic and some days I thought I was being disrespectful, and that was the reason the sale took so long..

If my Grandmother were alive, I would have never attempted to bury St.Joe, she would have buried me...

Prayers do work...Good Luck!
