Re: [FR] Residential house acting as rental (Showing residential on map)

Yep, having the same problem on the same lot as the OP.  Also had the problem on the Ro Kaya Rockside lot after downloading some rental properties from the gallery just to look at. 

EDIT: I might have figured out a workaround but it's complicated and weird so I might not have got all the steps correct.

First make a fresh save just in case something goes wrong. Then take any personal stored items and put them in your inventory or they will disappear during this process. 

1. Change the lot to a residential rental. (from here if you go back out to manage worlds you'll probably notice the lot is now listing multiple apartments even though there are none..)

2. Create 6 apartments. You don't need to build anything new unless you have less than six rooms in the building.

3. Just go to manage worlds and make sure it shows six apartments. You might notice some weird names or extremely high or low rent. Don't worry about that. 

4. load back to your sim. In the apartment management screen It now should show you as the property manager and all six apartments. 

5. Sell the apartments. This will kick you out of the world and you'll have to load back in. 

6. Go back into build mode and Delete the apartments using the trash can icon and lastly change your apartment back to a shared space.

7. Buy the apartments. This will take you to the world screen where you'll have to choose to buy your lot again. 

8. Go back into build mode and change the lot back to residential. When you go back to live mode the mailbox should no longer show options to pay rent or break your lease. 

9. Save your game, exit to menu and then reload. I don't know why I did that last step but it felt like the right thing to do. 

I somehow ended up with three bicycles in my household inventory after doing all this. Are bicycles somehow related to this bug?.. like tenants leave bicycles behind on apartments and they don't' get cleared? I don't know.
