Sorting by area is not that helpful to me. I'm usually not looking to buy in a certain area -- I'm comparing houses that are available at my price range.
Here's the problem: I don't have time to sort through every house listed in every area. And since different house prices appear randomly in the listings, I'd have to go through them all to make sure I got to see all the houses available at my price range.
Could we do a sub-sort within each area, for price range? Or better yet, have a main menu sort option for real estate prices? That'd be a time-saver. Thanks for all you do devs! Awesome game.
