Housing in (New) Ur

Just out of curiosity, where's everyone planning to buy houses when we go live again? Are most of you planning to buy houses on the same street again? Or maybe even the same houses?

My little Glitch lived on Doon Way before, but I'm considering buying in another region this time.

Where's your favorite place to live?

  • I'm gonna buy my house in Iljoki Ease manor again~
    I always loved living there for some reason, plus there's a Tii shrine nearby, double win for me :)

  • I am definitely buying on Fairgower Lane in Groddle Forest. I like the busy streets nearby, love the forest and tree houses - but this time I want one of the cottage style houses on the floor of the street...last time I was almost all the way at the top of the trees and it got annoying going up and down all the time!

  • I am getting a different style, but in the same "type" (groddle-meadow style houses, but the 10k version instead of the 8.5k. I like the decorations better :D)

    I haven't chosen a specific place yet, but I did really enjoy being on Estevan Meadow.

  • Back to the bogs for me- I wish they could grow veggies as well as herbs, but that's totally not a deal-breaker. Probably Chakra Phool, or my last house in Shimla Mirch.

  • Mogen: I had the same issue on Doon Way. Had to climb and climb (or fall and fall) to get home and back.

    I have to admit, those pricey joints in Alakol looked pretty good. I was saving up my currents for one before the reset.  The Groddle Meadow houses are pretty cute, too, though.

    Djabriil: Have you found a good use for the herbs? I had vegetables, not herbs, and I always wondered what they did and if I should grow them.

  • I wondered about that too

  • I aim to get my house back again. It was one of the 50k ones, so may take a little time. 
    But it's one of my main goals to get the exact house I had before back. Although someone decided to buy it just before reset lol  (I'd sold it a few hours before reset, and 5 minutes later it was bought... Odd. Not sure why they wanted to waste money on a big house so close to the end... Anyhow, I still consider it mine, as I'd been there for months and other person was just there for a few hours o_o).
    There is another house that I've kind of got my eye on, but will have to check with previous owner of that one as to if they're wanting to get it back before I aim for that one. It belonged to a friend, so I wouldn't want to step on toes :)

  • I've got my eye on one of the little 9k cottages, although I'm trying to decide if I want to be in Groddle Meadow or get out to Bortola. 

    I had one of the 50k mansions before, and I'd sort of like to set back up in Ojan Repine, at least eventually. But I'd like to let myself off the hook from trying to scrounge together 50k as fast as possible, and I'm kind of hoping that some different properties from the ones we have now get put up. It'd be cool to try some new things before retiring to my mansion.

  • I've never heard of half of the new areas, so I'll need to do a bit of research. I haven't been on in over 2 months, and the world is large and new!

  • Haiku: Bortola has the little cottages, too? I guess I need to scour the real estate listings again.

    Are "dark patches" what you grow herbs in? Or are they for harvesting loam? I saw those listed in some of the listings, and I wasn't sure how they differed from "normal" patches.

  • Dark patches are for egg plants. ^_^

  • Definitely looking at 2,200c Doon Way tree house (close to caverns, 3 patches, crops, cheap).

  • At first I wanted to do a crazy spree to get to the house I wanted, but last time I joined the game I was too confused to really take the time to play the early levels of the game, so this time around I want to take the time to get the full noob experience.  I will start off small and work my way up to my firebogs mansion :)

  • I'm aiming for a 2.2k tree house in Groddle Forest just so I have some place to dump stuff and my poor glitch won't be wandering the streets at night.  I loved my Asian-themed house in Groddle Meadow.  I (briefly) had a 50k house in Salatu just to see what they were like.  I would LOVE to have a cottage-style house in Besara.  Last I looked they didn't have them.

  • I totally didn't mind not having a house last time. I think that means I'll work my way up slowly this time, maybe wait until the mansions have some more features. Heck, maybe they'll add in simply monstrous 100,000+ currant mansions. :)

    I look forward to that day~ Though, I think for now the plan is to live out of my bags and chill out learning skills and earning money till I can afford to experience every house on the way up to getting a new mansion. 

    For reference I used to own quite a nice 50,000 currant ginormohouse up on Ojan Repine. Just a few blocks over from my buddy Haiku. ;P

  • $8000 plant themed house on Marakesh - and I plan to stay there UNLESS they ever build houses in ix or uralia

  • Thanks, LitaPie. :) That makes sense.

  • Now that I've had some real time to think about the whole living situation, I will get an apartment first. Some inexpensive little place to throw my crap and have a few crops. Then as I move up in the game, I shall get a bigger place. Eventually I want to go where the fireflies are. It's all about the crystals!

  • I bought my first house (the cheapest one) on Doon Way and didn't plan to change until after reset, but ended up buying one of the pricey $50K houses to see what all the hype was. I did really like the animal pen and the ease of getting into my house w/out climbing trees. But this time around I will probably still buy very cheap and trade up later when I have more currants.

  • I plan to buy my old house back in Alakol...though I am thinking about staying on the street and purchasing one of the 50K ones instead...kinda of waiting to see if the same neighbors return or if we will have new ones. I don't want to take one of the neighbors' houses if they want to get it back.

  • I had just bought a home in Shimla Murch prior to the reset, so I am set on re-purchasing it ASAP, cause it was so beautiful! (though it was 10k). Until then, I think I'm just going to sleep outside, because I had an apartment for a while prior to buying my home. I never went to it, and just used the cabinet, so I don't see the need to purchase another home until I get the one I want.
