"Furnished" option not available when moving households

I'm trying to move my generations sims into a new lot but whenever I do so the game always tells me that "Furnished option is not available for this lot".

I have tried moving sims in via 3 ways, one via manage worlds, one via phone > move households and one via CAS directly but they all gave me the same issue. My sims have more than enough simoleans to afford the furnished build and I really dont understand why its not working. Even with the cheat "freerealestate on" it still doesnt work.

I know I can simply save the lot and re-place it after my sims moved in(to the bulldozed lot) but still, would like to get this issue fixed since its the direct way of moving sims into fully furnished homes...

edit: I have also sought for solutions but the most "recent" solution I could find was from like 5 years ago and the game is totally different from 5 years ago so...

    @traquine   Have you been using MCCC and allowed it move NPC households?  If you have, that might be the problem as there was an issue where when the game moved and merged households using the MCCC population options, the house that was left empty would do that.  When you went into the house in build, all the furniture was there but the game wasn't seeing it.  

    One thing that usually works in lots that were affected by this was to just add something or replace something.  The try to move a sim in and you should get the furnished option.  DP has fixed this but it doesn't fix the lots that were already afflicted with the problem.  That has to be done manually, lot by lot.  One thing I have noticed after having a sim living in those lots is that the entire value does come back eventually.  

    Hope this helps

    This is why i had to turn off Neighbourhood stories, it was moving out perfectly happy families sims into the homeless world then making houses unmovable, sure you can fix them, but it's time consuming and not every simmer has all the time in world because of a bug that they refuse to fix.

    You can also disable the option for allowing households to move in or out, instead of turning off neighborhood stories altogether. I disabled that setting so they all stay in the house they've been assigned to.
