- Thanks Hayoo VTOR for the great maps!
Where are the housing brokers located?
- Housing Brokers are available near the entrance to each neighborhood.
What happens if I don't pay the upkeep?
- When housing upkeep is overdue, instead of foreclosing on your personal or kinship house, we "lock" the house. While your house is locked, you are denied the benefits of home ownership, including entry, access to storage, decorations, travel skill, and vendor discounts. However, your house and all the items it contains will be held for you indefinitely. You can unlock your house at any time by paying a restoral fee via the housing maintenance UI. (Book 13)
Do I lose my house if my subscription lapses?
- No.
Can you rotate decorations?
- Yes. (As of Book 12)
When do new housing zones open?
- A new housing zone opens when the current zone sells out. In my opinion this is a bug: new zones should open when all houses of a particular tier are purchased.
Can you upgrade a house?
- No.
Can your alts use "return to house"?
- Yes. (As of Book 12)
Can you put workbenches or a forge in your house? Or vendors?
- No. My thoughts on this are mixed. On one hand, it would be very convenient. On the other hand, it may make places like Thorin's hall extremely desolate.
What level do you have to be to purchase a house?
- Level 15.
What permissions are there on houses?
There are 5 permissions that can be assigned on a individual, kinship, or everyone basis:
- Visitor: Enter/exit house
- Housing Chests: Put items into or take items from a container
- Upkeep: Can pay upkeep
- Decorate: Ability to decorate the house
- Manage Permissions: Ability to change permissions
Can I pay upkeep in advance?
- Yes. Up to six weeks.
What happens if you abandon a house?
- It will put all of your items from the house in an escrow account that you have to access within 2 weeks to retrieve the items. It also returns all monies you have paid into the escrow account for maintenance fees. It does not, however, return any of the money that you paid for the house. (Yugi) There is also a 24 hour cooldown before you can purchase another house.(24 hour timer starts from the time you purchase a house not after you abandon one, if you purchased a house more than 24 hours before you abandon it, you can immediately purchase another house.)
Are neighborhoods racially restricted?
- No.
