It depends on the monk. There is no Sutta to support this. In Sri Lanka, it is just the culture. You get some idea from the following YouTube video.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E8POyDHfKzU

Yes, I also got about Sri Lanka regarding house-warming as you said. Even it is cultural thing to perform I'd want it here in India and may wherever we live. So I've to ask monk in first place. Thanks a lot.
