    ok this may sound compilated but it's not really

    1 if your in a game already then open the three dots-option manage worlds then select your household go to the three dots there manage household

    2 select your household in the window that pops open another window pops open

    3 select the arrows icon  click on that another window pops open to select  sim to split and merge you'll need to select a houshold in the right panel to move your sim to ( if you don't see  a houshold in the right panel click on the tiny down arrow to open the household to select )

    4 select the sim you want to move in the left panel then click on the arrow to move him/her to the right panel tick accept and that sim is moved

    5 Then  select the house you moved your sim to and evict the other sims out but this time select  the not in world select the other sims to that panel

    then close on the x or hit escape button which will be map view and selct your sim you want to play will be in their own home to play with

    thats the way i figured it  there may be another way i don't know of yet

    HEY EVERYONE!!!   I FOUND AN EASIER WAY!!!

    -go to manage household page like normal

    -seperate sim by clicking on the create  new household button

    -then once thats done go up to the top right hand corner and click household management

    -select sim and move them to desired lot

    Relationships stay intact!!!😕mileyhappy:

    You don't need to move the person into somebody else's house and then evict them. 1) manage household
    2) transfer sim arrow button
    3) + button to create a new household (it say they arent in the world but dont worry! You can still move them into a new house)
    4) when viewing the map, the top right has a household management button and your sim will be by herself in the unplayed tab
    5) click on the truck to move into a lot of your choice!

    If I do this and split my households then will I still be able to play both households? Or does the original household become void somehow?

    Push shift/ctrl/C then type in    testingcheats true      at top then type    Money 9999999    then that's what you'll have, Good playin. 

  • There is also

    motherlode = 50,000

    katching = 1,000

    freerealestate on = for buying any house while placing household.

    I have found that "moveobjects on" doesn't really work in sims 4. You cant place the object anywhere like in previous games which was really annoying.

  • Thank you for that

    Do you know how to change household name after I have split them like this

    You can change the household name in the Manage Worlds screen. Just choose the family and change the name. Happy Simming!
