Re: For Rent - "Cannot make changes outside owned area"

@iamsweetmystery @CristalViper @SpacemanBones Just confirming some details here. Does this occur without anything in Mods? And there are no tenants?

@luthienrising - You can't mod on PS4. And this was when I was first starting to build the first unit. I wanted to shift the 4th room to make room for stairs. It wouldn't let me. Only 4 empty rooms had been built. Not even wallpaper, flooring or doors. I was still figuring out the layout I wanted. Just the single owner living there. Nothing built for a tenant to rent. Not even any living space for the owner Sim at that point. I've finished the build, but I had to do it by changing the lot to Residential, completing the build, then changing back to Residential Rental and assigning the units.

@iamsweetmystery It seems like the options you get vary depending on whether anyone lives there or not. For buying a property, I suspect it's best to do all the editing before moving a landlord in. (A lot of us are still figuring the ins and outs of the system out!)

@luthienrising - Seems that way, but I had created a new character for this and she needed to live somewhere. I put her on the big empty lot with the intention of her building her own rentals. While there are workarounds, this really shouldn't be necessary. Like, what about established Sims who want to build a rental unit for family on their home lot, like a side house for their adult child to live in while attending university, or some other such scenario? Seems the devs overlooked that portion of the gameplay when designing it. The owner should always have full building autonomy for any unoccupied units.
