[ARCHIVED] [TLSP] [PSP] Moving and Selling Furniture Doesn't Give Money

Product: The Sims 4
Platform:PC
Which language are you playing the game in? English
How often does the bug occur? Every time (100%)
What is your current game version number? 1.105.345.1020
What expansions, game packs, and stuff packs do you have installed? All of Them
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Move Sims out of household and select 'Sell Furniture'.
What happens when the bug occurs? I moved my Sims to an empty lot earlier and hit sell furniture. They paid for their new lot and had less money than they started when they moved (the price of the lot). This happened again when I tried moving them again. They left the house with 22,000 Simoleans, were expected to receive 60,000 after selling their furniture, and got to their house with 20,000 Simoleans (give or take).
What do you expect to see? To receive money for the furniture they sold so I can build them a much bigger house.
Have you installed any customization with the game, e.g. Custom Content or Mods? Not now. I've removed them.
Did this issue appear after a specific patch or change you made to your system? Neutral/Not Sure 

I'm trying to avoid money cheats, so I waited until my Sim had 20,000 simoleons, so I could have the money from their jobs as well as the money from the furniture they sold, but it only gave the money they already had (so I had even less money to work with). This occurred before I downloaded MCCC and after.

    I am still trying to get my Sims to save up just in case they don't keep their money, but they should be moving out as soon as my youngest Sim ages into a teenager. They're in the rental lot now, though.

    Hi
    Are you playing your story now? Or just testing play?
    If you are playing your story, I recommend to copy the save before you let your Sims move.
    Thanks your report.

    Okay, this is what I am getting for Residential Rentals. I did not get the money it promised me, but the selling furniture and keeping furniture were the same.

    Hi, thanks confirming.
    Is the funds in the last pic in Live Mode after moving, is not it? It seem that Unit Value was not deducted from remaining funds.
    I don't know how to work the system of the residential rental Lot, is there weekly rental amount like an Apartment Lot? And if there is, the amount is 17,388?
    The amount deducted from remaining funds seems to be different from Tiny or Haunted Lot.
    The symptom remainintg funds is same when moving using Keep Furniture and Sell Furniture from Residential Rental Lot, it's good thing we know.
    But in this Bug Report, we treat the symptom of the funds decrease in Live Mode. So, you would like to have a new Bug Report about the symptom of the same remaining funds when moving household using Keep Furniture and Sell Furniture, or to find already being Bug Report and click "Me too".
    One Bug Report treats one symptom, please remember.

    Hi there
    Did you see the same thing when moving from Residential Rental Lot?
    And if possible to attach the pics of the changing funds, it may help to narrow down the problem.
    Thanks regard.

    I'm pretty late to this thread so by now I'm sure you've either figured out a work-around or someone has (hopefully) fixed this issue. Regardless, I JUST ran into this issue today and about had an aneurysm trying to figure out how to make this stop happening.

    I chose "sell furniture," it told me my remaining funds were about 30K Simoleans AFTER moving. I get to the new lot and it says I only have 11K Simoleans. Dude, absolutely infuriating.

    After they moved to the new lot, I looked at the old lot and wouldn't you know.... all of the furniture was STILL THERE. So it never sold. That menu is completely bugged out right now. Or maybe it's connected to a MOD or to tiny home residentials. I'm not sure. But regardless. Never ran into this problem until today so SOMETHING is glitched out.

    What I ended up doing was bulldozing the whole lot BEFORE moving, so that essentially the game had no option but to give me the correct money. This ended up working. But this is insanely annoying considering there are already a million issues with this game 🙂

    Happy Simming lol

    This bug is still ongoing after Update on 10/01 in case moving from Tiny Home Lot type.
    When the action of moving finished and go in Live Mode, the amount of the Tiny Home Lot Value is again deducted Sim's funds.
