OWNABLE APARTMENTS v1.2- DOWNLOAD

Changelog
Added new settings.  You'll find on a basegame computer.  If you cannot find the custom venues use this settings option to become a Landlord or quit being a Landlord.  Next, setup the apartment lot, place the computer and operate the property as a Landlord as usual.

If you download this version 1.2 please remember to remove the previous version.

If you have any issues please let me know and I'll make adjustments.

Version 2 coming soon.  It'll add new content and fix all buffs looting at the same time.

________________________________________________________________________________________

Ownable Apartments adds three new venue types you can purchase and manage. Purchase Luxury Apartments, Low Income Apartments, and Condos.

What You'll Need
Get To Work Expansion Pack
Zerbu's venue list  - DOWNLOAD HERE

Setup An Apartment Complex
Decide what type of apartment complex you want to manage. Luxury, Low Income, or Condo.  You can find apartments already build on the gallery or build one for yourself. You'll need a leasing office within the property that contains a basegame computer. Many of you the management options are first performed on a computer.

Give the lot one of the new venue types.

Note: This mod does not work with City Living Apartments.

The venue type will revert back to "Generic" after you purchase.

How This Works
Purchase an apartment complex through the new "Apartments" menu using a basegame computer. You'll have 3 property options. Select which you prefer.  You'll then make the purchase and travel to the lot.

Be sure to make apartment purchases from your residential lot.

The retail store UI will not function with this mod.  You will still have to transfer funds and sell the lot afterwards but that's the only thing you should use.

How To Fill Apartment Vacancies
Use the computer interaction "Fill Apartment Vacancy".  This interaction will spawn an applicant for you to ask tenant screening questions.  If you want you can approve or deny right away or ask needed questions.  They'll give answers to make a judgement call.

From the Apartments menu select Leasing Office, where you'll find "Fill Apartment Vacancy".

Landlord Trait | Apartment Tenant Screening | Community
When you purchase an apartment complex you'll get the Landlord Trait and unlock a Landlord Social menu.  This menu gives you access to Apartment Tenant Screening and Community interactions.

You can ask:
-How much income do you earn?
-Where are you employed?
-Do you have a felony?
-Approve apartment lease
-Deny apartment lease
-Evict a tenant (will remove the tenant trait from the npc)

The community menu has a couple of interactions designed to make small talk with tenants living in your apartment complex.

All approved tenants can be invited to the  property at any time from the Leasing Office menu.  They will not appear automatically.  Evicted tenants will not return to the property.

Landlord Experience
Sims with the Landlord trait will get random buffs from tenants complaining about different maintenance issues.  They'll get these buffs anywhere.  To remove these buffs wait 2 hours.  Depending on the issue you can remove the buff by scheduling a maintenance service provider.  The service provider will do multiple jobs and mostly just roam around.

Find these interactions behind the Apartments compute menu and Services.  Each service request will cost money expenses.

Earn Money
Collect Rent from the Leasing Office menu every 24 hours.

Known Issues:
Stress Moodlets for repairs are happening at the same time making the Sim too tense to use the computer.  I'll try to figure out how to either reduce each moodlet and have them loot separately.

Currently no option to remove the Landlord trait.  You'll be stuck getting the moodlets if you've sold the apartment complex.

If you experience any other issues please let me know below.

How To Install
-Unzip file.  Keep all files in the folder.  Place the folder in your Sims 4 Mods Folder.
-Sims 4 game options, mods and script mods need to be enabled.
-Requires the latest version of Sims 4

Terms Of Use
-Do not claim this mod as your own
-Do not re-upload to any site
-Translations cannot include the mod.  Only stringtables.

Build Credit: Japanese Manshon by amitaliri on the gallery

Update:  I removed the rar file due to unzipping issues.  The 4 files are all required for the mod to work.  Place them into a folder, then into your Sims 4 Mods folder.

Just downloaded your mod and I’m trying to have my landlord live in an apartment in the building. Is there any way this is possible?

Nyquis Morgan

Hey, I've added this mod to my folder but nothing appears in game. Is there any mods that this mods conflicts with?

Diamond Arbuthnot

Make sure the apartment venue type is showing up in the venue options. Set a lot to that venue type. It should show up as available. Also be aware that once you do it'll still revert back to a generic lot type.

WICKED PIXXEL

I installed into my mods folder but on the base game computer it says there are no available apartments to purchase. Why is that?

LegionLegend

It's injected on basegame computers. I use modconstructor for the script file and it's the only computers that show up. I'm just now testing modcontructor 5 and will see if that injects on more computers. The other option is xml injector. But this version just basegame.

WICKED PIXXEL

Hi there, Is it possible to have the option to buy an apartment available on any computer?

Moonchild783

For some reason the images aren't showing up. I'll probably have to create a video tutorial for this.

WICKED PIXXEL

hi i just downloaded this today, when a tenant comes over and if you deny them why wont they leave after you denied their appl

Danielle Moser

Thank you.

WICKED PIXXEL

Try using the 7-zip compression app for Windows operating systems. I have no problem unzipping .rar compressed files and highly recommend it for nearly all file compressing formats. Here's the link to download it. https://www.7-zip.org/download.html

Carl Studebaker

No need to update because it just added the ability to run the apartment without purchasing. For some the venues didn't show up. If that happens then update.

WICKED PIXXEL

I didn't have any issues with it , but should I still update to the latest? I downloaded 1.2.

Ebony Rodgers

I don't know what the issue is with the unzipping but I've added the files separately that you can put into a folder and place in your Sims 4 Mods Folder.

WICKED PIXXEL

It wouldn't let me unzip for some reason, I have winrar on my pc, but it isnt giving the option to unzip

Tay Simmer

I'll be sending my venue ids to the basemental list soon as I get a chance. Then that universal venue list should work best. Will try to get to that this week. That should help with the venues not showing up.

WICKED PIXXEL

It's really up to you. You can assign rooms through door lock interaction, beds, or just let them roam freely.

WICKED PIXXEL

I got this to work (had to cheat a little). My only question is: Do tenants go to their own apartment or do I have to assign it to them?

Make sure you're using a basegame computer. All-in-one power pc seems to work best. I'd leave all the files in the folder instead of loose in the sims 4 mod folder but don't place the script package file deep within other folders. The mod won't work. Another reason could be all files were not unzipped. Let me know if this helped you or not.

WICKED PIXXEL

shar

If anyone has an issue just let me know. Especially with downloading the zip file or getting the venue to show up.

WICKED PIXXEL

Are you using winrar? it'll unzip the file. Otherwise I'm not sure why the file won't unzip.

WICKED PIXXEL

I want to use this so bad but when I click the link it I only get one file not a folder to unzip

Princess Thomas

Makes sense since you can't really build those apartments that came with city life anyways :p

Freyya_

This mod does not work with City Living Apartments. Realy? f...

Burbull

You don't get the interactions on the computer?

WICKED PIXXEL

Ugh, it's not working for me. I've followed all the instructions. But I don't get the options :(. Does it conflict with any mods?

Lif3 With Lolo aka Sweet and Spicy Sims

Please make sure you've unzipped the file using a program called winrar. You also need a basegame computer and compatible venue list. If the venue list isn't working above try a different one from littlemssam or basemental. There are others you can search "sims 4 venue list" on google to find. Hope this helps.

WICKED PIXXEL

Unfortunately, it isn't working for me. Such a bummer, but I love the idea!

Asia Huggins

This is so dope. I'm so excited about this mod like all the others you've created.

Tawonna J Parker

Stringtables are text basically. The words in an interaction. You can add them in Sims4studio or mod constructor.

WICKED PIXXEL

Please can you tell me what are stringtables?

Puka

Thank you :)

WICKED PIXXEL

So excited about this mod, I have been building my luxury apartment building since 1pm cst. I will try to finish it tomorrow. I love your creations @wicked pixxel.

Ebony Rodgers

Make sure you unzipped the file using a program like winrar, script mods are enabled in game settings, and try different venue lists if you don't see the venues.

WICKED PIXXEL

It’s not working for me

Michelle Savage

Please make sure you unzipped the file from the rar file and placed it in your sims 4 mods folder. Also be sure script mods are enabled in game settings.

WICKED PIXXEL

hi i downloaded the venue change, rar file, and placed a base game computer and i cant see the apartments in the options or the venue type.

Kiara Jade

Yes, just don't include the mod with the translation download.

WICKED PIXXEL

Hello, do you accept translations for your mods?

ISY

omg i'm so excited to use this in my game😍
