Is there really a generally
good or bad direction for
houses ?

Generally, when you refer to good oa bad direction for a house it depends on several things.
1. If you refer to a good and bad house based on a Flying Star for example. Then yes, a house can be good and bad depending on the location. However, this by itself does not mean that a bad house is bad for everyone.
2. It also depends very much on the suitability of the house to the owner. I this means that a house which is suitable to the owner can overrule some of the bad influence the house has, as it is generally favourable to a person.
So it depends on how you look at it.
Generallly, however, most problems can be solved especially for influences based on Flying Star. However, it is impossible to change a house from bad to good if it does not suit a person. So this is the most important.
Most of the time people encounter problems due to having a house which is totally unsuitabble for them. This is often coupled with a bad house for a particular period. Thus, in such cases, the only solution is often to move to a better location if possible.

Not exactly true here. This is often based on say a practitioner who has done a calculation say for period 7 (1984-2003) to determine the good and bad directions and thus generalising the analysis.
Also, the personal suitablility has not been taken into account for house determination. In such cases. For a person for example, can have a good house which faces North, but to another person, his good house faces South.
So this can greatly impact upon the choice of the house.
Hope that helps.
