I have noticed several issues in for rent (aside from the title).
Twice now the game has forgotten that I own properties even though they are marked as rental properties and I can still interact as the landlord. I currently have no properties in the business tab (register icon). I managed to buy back properties the first time. Have not yet attempted a second time.
I accepted tenants into the spare rooms of oakenstead but they have yet to move in. This has been several game days. Boulder (single bed) and an old couple (single bed).
The game seems to think oakenstead 3 is worth $4,294,967,295. But when setting rent I get $60 max.
The game will not let me alter lots in build mode. I have read that this is locked out if tenants live on property. This is not true as I have altered okenstead randomly multiple times. The house is set as 1 and spare rooms are set as 2 and 3. Zacky family moved in before making any changes and have never been evicted. This is also true of garden essence lot, crick cabana lot. I do not live on these lots.
I had one maintenance event where a stove exploded on crick cabana lot. I did not receive the complete maintenance event goal. This is the only event I have had since the expansion came out. (Pre order).
I have never been paid rent from any tenants.
Altered lot name dose not carry over to subsequent rooms. Game dose not remember individual room names on lot.
Tenant approval seems to be random. I have asked each tenant in the same house and I get mixed response. Reloading save gives another set of responses.
Revolts are pointless. There should be a list of things a tenant would like me to change in order to gain a better property value and landlord rating. If a tenant is unhappy, I would like to know how to change it. How is it that a tenant can give a positive review but still lead a revolt seconds later.
Employees. It would be nice if I could hire employees to handle issues for me. This way I can run a hotel with staff. It would be nice to have employees also so I could have a true passive income.
Mold. I have never had any mold event of any kind even with the mold trait on.
The amenities of all lots is always low. Even in large houses with most expensive furniture no matter how much I add. I also noticed it does not include the shared space when making this assessment. The shared space should be considered in addition to the room.
I have noticed sims will always want to use the shower when I am trying to use the landlord option in the bathroom. I have seen Sims come in one after the other and take a quick shower and even step in and out of the shower without turning on water. Even when they have five showers to choose from in five bathrooms at different locations. One sim got mad because another sim was in the shower or was ran out when he tried to shower. This dose not happen when I am not trying the landlord option in the bathroom.
It is fun to snoop in someone's personal property while they sit and watch.
Loading between rooms causes the game to reset the lot each time. Sims are no longer performing the action they were before the load screen. Some times they load at the front of the building when they were in Thier room before the load. I get the point of the load screens but what is the point of sims immersion is broken. I have never tried to go beyond the six room limit. I am afraid to.
The game has been severely laggy ever since installing for rent. Even in saves where I have never implemented the feature. Even selecting houses on the map is about a second or two lag.
I am sure I can keep going but I assume you get the point.
Please fix these issues. All of wich seem like something testers would have found.
At this point I have decided to remove the expansion and have considered requesting a refund.
