Description:

Private properties are structures owned by private individuals, and the properties may require monthly rent be paid. If leased, failure to pay rent on time may result in repossession of the property. Repossessed properties have been redistributed to other characters via auction or raffle. Properties inside of towns often require the owner to have citizenship of that town (e.g. Aies apartment in Ta'Illistim). Some properties, such as those released via SimuCoin and pay events, may not require ongoing payments to maintain the property after purchasing a deed to ensure permanence.

Rules & Regulations

NEW 2023 - Property Rules & Regulations

Deeded properties are unique unto themselves and may be somewhat customized by the owner upon winning the property deed. Only 1 deeded property can be owned per account (including SimuCoin private properties), but they do NOT replace or restrict the purchase of Premium homes. Unlike Premium homes the properties are not automatically open to all characters on the account nor restricted to one guest; instead they are locked (or not!) using special keys which can be duplicated by rogues with lock mastery or by GameMasters, and then distributed by the owner.

Upgrades

Private property upgrades may sometimes be purchased or won at auction at Rumor Woods, Evermore Hollow, or Duskruin. These upgrades have historically included:

Previously, they were available via Elans, which was a currency used for leased or owned private properties (including SimuCoin private properties). They debuted at the December 2017 run of Summit Academy, purchased from the SimuCoin Store during appropriate events. Elans have since been discontinued in favor of property Upgrades distributed through other pay events.

Other restrictions including one per account and limited number of purchases may also be applied.
