Hi. I have a problem where when I try to place a house the building lot screen gets stuck and never ends. I have NO packs of any type but I do have mods. I tried taking out the mod folder and played the game without mods but the problem continued. I can't place any houses and my lots keep disappearing so I have no houses. Please help !!!

Hi @bobertaming
Try resetting your user files as described in the factory reset described in this post: http://answers.ea.com/t5/The-Sims-4/FAQ-Troubleshooting-Steps-amp-Known-Issues/m-p/3621199
You won't loose anything. Just make sure to not delete any files and make a backup.
After renaming, repair your game by right clicking on the game in Origin.
Try on a new game with nothing added back first (start new game). If it works, put back your save game and try again. If it still works, you can start putting stuff back.
The rest does not need putting back, cause they are mostly cache files that recreate or log files that are not needed for the game.
There's also this issue though that's seems to happen more often on Macs: https://answers.ea.com/t5/Technical-Issues-PC/INFO-REQUEST-Houses-Lots-disappear/td-p/4620279/jump-t...
if you can upload your save as asked there, that would be great.
Good Luck

I reset and started adding back files. I was able to add houses and the loading screen ended then I added my save files and the problem is back again. The save file is the first I added back
