    @s33russell426 You should be able to move the family into any unoccupied house using the FreeRealEstate cheat. Just open the cheat console by pressing CTRL-Shift-C and enter 

    • FreeRealEstate on. 

    It would probably be a good idea to give the family some money after they move in, and you can do that using other cheats.

    • kaching
    • rosebud
    • motherlode

    Kaching and rosebud give the fanily 1000 simoleons. Motherlode gives them 50,000. (Also, note the spelling of motherLODE.)

    Finally you can use the money cheat for any amount between 0 and the max, which I think is around 99,999,999. I recommend using a fairly small amount, such as you would normally have after moving in a new family, but it's your decision. You will need to put testingCheats on first. TestingCheats is not needed for any ot the other cheats I mentioned. TestingCheats should be turned off after you finish unless you want to keep it on.
