For Rent: how to become landlord

Hi all,

Last week I purchased the 'For Rent'-expansion and created a lot/house for tenants/rent. I made a Sim, with in mind her becoming the landlord. So I'd love her to buy the residential rental, but it has been occupied in the mean time. The system keeps saying "Sims can only purchase unowned businesses or unoccupied residential lots". How can I fix this? What steps can I take to become landlord of my own built house? 

Thanks in advance! 

Iris

    Hello IrisMyrna​ 😊if the Residential Rental already has people living in them, then the best way to remedy this is by evicting them from the Manage Worlds.

    To do this, first click on the occupied unit and then look for the 3 dots as shown below and then click on the Evict (House Icon) and this should remove the occupants.

    Once you have evicted all tennants from the Residential Rental, you should then be able to Purchase the Residential Rental Lot.
