Hi, so I'm new to all of this and I can't find tips that help out with the fact that I can't let my new Sims enter the house I built for them.I created a new house with two new Sims and built their house up, but the problem is that when I get out of Build Mode and start playing, the Sims can't enter the house or associate at all with the house. I've tried to zoom into the house and see if I could click on something indoors but the house appears empty from the inside. What can I do to fix this and start playing?

@mashikyukyu It appears that your Sims do not own the house but are visiting the lot. From the Phone you select to move household and select the house you built.

Is it a matter of just entering the house? I know when I first started to build the foundation was up too high. and needed to add stairs or lower the foundation.

@RavenLure Hmm I already have stairs thoI originally didn't even have a foundation but I rebuilt the house so it would have a foundation with stairs

@jpkarlsen It says that my sims are already the current residence of the household. So apparently I own it but it's just a matter of getting in?

@mashikyukyu Please post a screenshot of what you see.

You do not click the door to go in the house only to knock when visiting other Sims.
Press Page down (or click the Go Down button) until you are on the ground level of the house. Then click anywhere inside to walk in.

I'm already on ground level. This is what I see when I try to click inside the house, nothing shows and the action is cancelled.

Hello, I did notice a hanging plant was near the door also sometimes causes a issue. Maybe move it to the other side for now. Just to trouble shoot it.. I am sure you have changed out the door too. My suggest is try the manage worlds, go to the lot and save to the library. Once you are sure saved to the library, bulldoze lot. add house back. Return to game and see your sims is okay to enter.Or try a different lot with the house and move you sims to the new one. May need extra fund when moving you know.
Good Luck!
