#countries #people #history #house #research
Nowadays,
people
 are inclined to know the history of the zone they live in. In some parts of the world,
this
 curiosity is not restricted to the town or country but
also
 includes their house. In
this
 essay, I am going to give reasons why the history of houses has been searched and how
people
 can accumulate data about it.
First
 and foremost, houses are valuable property, so for purchasing or renting a house a large amount of money has to be paid. Since various natural disasters
such
 as floods, earthquakes and storms can happen annually, by knowing about the past of a building
people
 can be aware of the infrastructure and strength of the place they live in.
For instance
, earthquakes happen frequently in Japan
hence
, Japanese engineers have to construct buildings which can remain against
this
 disaster, and the tenant or shoppers should be informed about it Many
people
 due to the psychological effects are acquisitive to know the history of their accommodation. For many
people
, it is highly important to get positive energy from their house.
Therefore
, if a crime happened in a site and someone is killed, it cannot be a favourable place to live. A good example of
this
 would be prisons. In some areas, the governments decide to sell the building prisons so it will not be a good place to live for these
people
 even though they will be re-decorated. There are numerous ways to gather data about old buildings. Asking from old local
people
 and neighbours
besides
, looking in the local library can be the best method to get information.
However
, the modern way is surfing the Internet which may be really useful. In conclusion, there is no doubt that knowing the past of a property can help
people
 to establish a powerful bond. Personally, I think you can get positive feedback from your home if you know before you
people
 have lived there happily and safely.
