Open House Bugs?

[thewileyside]

Hey all! I just started playing and I'm having a great time with the game.

Unfortunately, I'm having huge amounts of trouble with open houses. Every single one I've done has gone miserably, whether its for myself or for a job. Potential tenants never find the apartments more than "fine" at best, and the most profit i've ever gotten from a place is $40. I watched a video from a year ago where the player were getting a few hundred dollars of profit from their first place.

I'm not sure if it's a bug or if I'm just really bad at this. Can anybody help me? Thanks!

Open houses in general will be reworked, but we're currently working on redoing the designs of open house jobs in hopes that this will help people better when it comes to negotiation with them. Outside of this we do plan to rework the mechanics a little bit as they can be buggy with people just standing around and not leaving when asked at times, etc.

But some things that can help increase your own is to rework your apartments as you level up and unlock more items. It's helpful to try to raise your room prestige scores to at least an A (75) but as you become more experienced with this it's better to try go to for an A (100+) score for each room which helps your apartment scores which are taken into consideration during open houses. It's also good to remember what tags are associated with your place and find tenants that may fit them as this will allow them to want to pay more. Also not to settle on people that think the place is "fine" It's better to go for exceptional, but not to settle for anything less than good. Hope some of this helps!

i just realized that if i let them hang out in the unit for a while their scores can get hire... oops! that helps a lot, thanks! just realized this before checking this thread. where can i find the room prestige scores? I haven't been able to find them.

You can hold "alt" and click on the room floor/room name on the floor and the room context UI should appear!
