Library Under the Sands?

I spent (real) days trying to figure this out. Even the teleport cheat didn't work. I was finally able to get into the house by throwing a party & inviting the household. After the party they went home & I followed them. I hope this helps anyone else who has the same problem.

Near the edge of town by the river there is a single story home with a rectangular, closed off courtyard in the middle. It's pretty unique and you shouldn't have any trouble with my description.

When you press M for map; it will show in yellow icon.....

How do you Sneak in?? I've been trying to get inside for Sim-days now and I'm best friends with the owner but i still can't get in.

EDIT: by the way, the house is square shaped and "open" in the middle and it's right next to the marked place.

I didn't sneak in. I asked to be invited in, and since I was friends with them, they didn't get upset that I just went ahead and inspected the hole in the ground and went down the stairs to the library. They didn't get upset when I left their lot with the ancient book in my inventory either.

This is how it is done, for it is what worked for my sim too.

I'm still having trouble figuring out how to get in the house. I have tried becoming friends with both Sanna and Fahad and I am best friends with both, I have camped out on their doorstep and no one comes home and I have even figured out how to peek in the windows but I can't get in. If anyone has any details on how they figured it out that would be great because I am so stumped. I would love to finish this adventure so that I can have more visa points to stay longer.

I knocked on the door and they invited me inside.

Not sure why mind you... it would be kind of suspicious for some random Sim from out of town that you haven't met before knocking on the door. So what do you do? You let them in?! Strange...

I have the same problem that saca523 and Cleoratra have. They both work at the marked and NEVER come home so it's impossible to get invited inside!

So How do U Get in the House when noone is ever home? I cant get passed this.

I am getting very frustrated by this quest. I had snuck into the house and was in the middle of going through the hidden library when my vacation ended and I was whisked away back home. Now I am back, but it says noone lives in the house and the "sneak in" option isn't available. I thought maybe I had to wait until late night for that option to become available, but it is now 2 am and so far nothing. Any tips?
