Owning a house or land?

[Sir Grublar The Great]

So, I'm very early game but I was wondering if its possible to buy your own house or even land? Because I have a thousand (gold?) coins but not exactly sure what to spend it on at the moment

Yes. But I have read here that From the Ashes will cost you around 90k. I'm just beginning it and i already dumped 30k into it and only have one building (it's not a house).

Also, I might observe that 1k is not really very much. A really good weapon can cost that much or more. Same with armour. A good horse and tack can cost 3k or more.

Train in two disciplines and you go through 1K quick...particularly at more than basic levels.

Esp. early in the game, accumulating enough money that you don't have to worry if you need (I mean need) something is hard work. It's a full time job.

And having started FTA, frankly, I'm not sure I can keep up with the expenses. Esp. since my next stage in life is to enter a monastery (can't earn anything in a monastery).

All that said, you don't get a house with a bed, until you start upgrading buildings you've already paid to have constructed.

TBH, I'd actually rather stay at Inns--usually there's a bath nearby, food, and companionship and I can pay for my stay (and then some by a wide margin) by playing Farkle. And time to read. Just don't book a room for more than a night.

Some sound advice, many thanks to the both of you.

I realised about 10 minutes ago that 1k is actually pathetic haha, but thanks

Just wanted to add - Prague groschen was made of silver

And it's quite possibly the nicest house in the game.

Yep, the "hare hunt house" is the only home in the whole game which will feel like your own private house. Highly recommend googling it to make sure you get it, in my first play through I didn't even know it was a possibility. I think that the quest 'sheep in wolf's clothing' will both fail 'hare hunt' and make house unavailable so be aware.

Sorry if that's a spoiler, think it's not but my apologies.
