@crinrict Yes I tried it without mods/cc. The furniture doesn’t appear in my family inventory, and nor do I want it to appear there. I want the furniture to stay in the old house as that is where the furniture started at, and I want the old house furnished and decorated for a new family to move into. Once I move, ALL of the furniture gets deleted UNLESS I move the family by evicting them first through manage worlds. This wasn’t the case before. Before, I could use the computer/phone to move households, press sell furniture, and none of the furniture in the old house would disappear. But now, once I press sell furniture, the whole house loses all of its furniture so that it is empty. Does that make sense?
I have already done all of the basic steps of trying to hotfix it.
- crinrict6 years agoHero+@lynylestbelle Just wanted to make sure you forgot to click it by accident.
As said, for me it still works as it should.
Did you also test on a fresh save to see if it's a general issue or related to your save game ? @crinrict no problem I totally understand! And yes I have.

Few more question to see if we can get to the bottom of why it's not working for you
As there are a few options to move
- Did you move through the phone ? Is this with one or multiple Sims or does that not matter ?
- Did you move to/from a house, dorm or apartment or does that also not matter ?
- Does it happen if you move a Sim into an existing other household or also if you just move to a different lot ?
- Did you check the house right after you moved out (there is a bug where houses become 'ghost' empty. Meaning it shows as you can't buy furnished but the furniture is actually still there) or played some and then wanted to move someone in ?
- Does it àlso not work if you use the household manager and use the Transfer between households button or move out through that screen ?
- If you split the household with the new option, does the family in the old one keep the furniture (there is no sell/keep option then but who knows)
- There has been another report of someone not being credited for the furniture. Does that happen to you too ?
- If you choose to keep the furniture, is it in your household inventory or also missing ?
Also, have you tried repairing the game through Origin yet ? 1) I’ve moved through the phone and computer. It happens with moving multiple sims and also when moving a single sim
2) It doesn’t matter. It happens with all of those.
3) It happens when I move to a different lot, I’m not sure if it happens when I move into an existing household, unless it’s a university dorm. It happened when I moved from my old house to the dorms.
4) I did check when I moved out. I went back and the house was fully unfurnished, in both build and and live modes.
5) The bug does not happen when I move people through household manager. But it never used to happen to me even when I used the phone/computer.
6) Yes the family keeps the furniture.
7) I get money for the furniture.
8) It is in my household inventory and disappears from the old house.
9) Yes I have.
- crinrict6 years agoHero+@lynylestbelle I know you said it also happens on a fresh save but could you send me your main one just to see if I can duplicate it there ?
Just upload to google drive or one drive and PM me the link. I've PM'd the link to you! Hopefully I did that correctly. Thanks for your help.
- crinrict6 years agoHero+@lynylestbelle I moved your active family from the apartment to a house in Willow Creek, selling furniture, and all was still in the apartment.
Have you tried a folder rename yet (aka factory reset) ? Thank you for all of the help! I do not know what I did but I managed to get it to work somehow... I’m just sad that the house I originally moved from is empty still and I have to redecorate.
I have the same problem. I spent 6 hours building a house and all of it just disappeared! ☹️
