Re: Not recognising second floor appartment

@LeanneM11 

Happy New Year!

First off, nice build!  And you will be happy to hear that I found nothing wrong on the lot.  I was able to buy the lot, rent the 2nd floor apartment and move the owner into apartment 1 with absolutely no problems.  So, nothing needs to be changed on the lot to get it to work.  The 2nd stair is not an issue at all.

One thing I did find was that there were no bedrooms or bathrooms assigned to the 2nd floor apartment in the upper left panel in build mode.  I did fill in the blanks when I installed the lot the first time and was checking it over.  It was the only thing I did so you might want to check that to see if that fixes the renting issue.  I did install the lot again and was able to rent both apartments without correcting those numbers.

So, after filling in those numbers, if you still can't rent out the 2nd floor apartment, I suggest you save the lot to your Library.  Bulldoze what's there and reinstall it. And try to rent the 2nd floor apartment.  My test sim did rent the lot on her 1st visit there.  Then I sent her home and then moved her into apartment 1.  No problems whatsoever.  I also tried renting both apartments before doing that and was able to.

One thing I would change is to make the room at the top of the back stair shared space rather than assign it to apartment 2 since the room below is shared and there is no way to keep sims from going into the upper room.  It'll reduce the rent for apartment 2 a little as well.  And in the front foyer/stair up to apartment 2, you have a wall light floating in midair.

Hope this helps.
