Re: [WORKAROUND] [FR] Low rent max

★ Guide

I am having this problem as well.  My tenant died.  He went to sleep with fishes Standard smile

 

Anyways, my max rent was stuck at $4.   I was able to use the workaround to correct the issue.  Hopefully, EA will correct the issue soon.

@gardenlobsterMe too except for the build mode fix. Nothing has worked. Walls, carpet, appliances, beds.... no upgrades helped.

Had a tenant move out on their own and now I have TWO apartments that show under $5. One of the apartments are even a 5 star rating.

The build buy solution didn't work for me, but I sold the rental property and repurchased and it fixed the rent.

Hi there @Becky678 there's a bug report open that sounds like your issue if you want to take a look and click Me Too on the first post on page 1 and add a reply if you'd like to do so. You might find tips to help too.

I have a slightly different bug with my rent, it's at zero and there's a separate bug report for that. One pack with some great ideas but sooooo many bugs!

 

Good luck!

The Sims 4: For rent - Max Rent 2$/day

★★★ Newbie

Ok so,

 

1st I purchased the for rent expansion pack for the sims 4. 

2. I made a lot with two separate units and one shared unit the rent maximum was 20$/day. 

3. I wrongfully evicted the tenant in the unit so I could move to a different part of the for rent map 

4. On the NEW lot I made 2 separate units and 1 shared unit just like the first one. The separate units are more spacious and have better furnishings, so does the shared lot. 

5. Maximum rent dropped to 2$/day on NEW LOT. I expected my rating and rent to go down but not at such an extreme also my rating is fine. (1star same as before)

6. My character, the landlord lives on the lot in a separate unit from the tenant.

 

I read online that sometimes shared lots will cause the rent to drop to that amount. I expected the rent to drop after wrongfully evicting the tenant but I didn't expect it to drop to such a low point. I have questions

 

a) Why did this happen?

b) How do I fix it?

c) If this is part of the game play how long does it take to resolve within game?

 

Here is what I have tried to solve it 

 - I have looked at multiple different forums trying to find an answer

 - A very helpful agent chatted with me for almost an hour trouble shooting potential solutions to the problem including, closing and then reopening the save file, and swapping out the fridge? There was nothing on the sims forums that mentioned anything like this happening. 


- Was told to post my case here for follow up.

Hoping to find answers.

I was having the same problem. It also told me the lot was worth $0 and was 0 tiles. Turns out all the rooms were classified as “shared space,” and when I switched them over, it corrected itself.

I was just going to add the same thing. I came here looking for a solution and was going to try the build mode work around and then saw that somehow the game reset the whole lot and everything was shared. Once I remarked the whole the property, it fixed the problem. I've had this happen before when I was still working on a large property and I had uploaded to my library to save, when I came back to the property, I noticed that it only had one unit versus 6. Ugh. I guess the game is some times randomly removing the units and making them only one unit.

Re: [WORKAROUND] [FR] Low rent max

★★★ Newbie

I am having the same problem and I cannot find an answer for this.

I can change the lease length but not the rent.

 

I have tried this over and over, rebuilt, started over etc.

I know there has to be a simple explanation.

 

Please help!
