For rent info thread

• The gameplay trailer was released! Info from that includes:
  
  • Property owners living in one of their residential rental lots don't have to pay rent.
    
  • When you are building a residential rental lot and click on a room, you can set the room to either belong to a unit, create a new unit, or make it a shared space.
    
  • Unlike in The Sims 2, each unit can have more than one door leading out, as the video showed making a bathroom between two units a shared space.
    
  • In the upper right panel, there will be a button next to the Lot Info panel for unit configurations. There you can see the unit's name (household's name if occupied), and opening it up allows you to see its size and value, set its number of bathrooms and bedrooms, and set it as home unit. In addition, each unit has different lot traits which you can set through Unit Configurations.
    
  • The Tenant Agreement panel allows you to change the rent per day and lease length, see the unit rating and what affects it, set the rules and fines for breaking these rules, and see the tenants. You can also travel to the unit (loading screen I guess) and unjustly evict the tenants.
    The rules shown:
    
    • No Social Events
      
    • No Loud Noises
      
    • Maximum Occupancy
      
    • No Trash Overload
      
    • No Ghosts
    
    
  • Tenant Agreement can be set differently to each unit, so you can set the rent and rules individually. The rent can even be set to 0.
    
  • Fill Vacancies panel shows you the unit info (rating, rules, bed and bathrooms, and rent) and show you potential tenants who can move in. The higher the unit rating is, the more tenant choices you have.
    
    • The tenant choices only show the amount of sims, the ages of sims, how many beds are wanted, and what is their rent cap.
    
    
  • If someone is late on rent, the property owner can post a rent demand or even take their tenants stuff.
    
  • Tenants that break the rules or don't pay the rent can be (justly) evicted. (Added justly because there are also unjustly evictions)
    
  • Second chances can be given to those evicted.
    
  • Some observations on the three scenes:
    
    • Tenant Revolt can see tenants protesting.
      
    • Roach problems.
      
    • Apartments can be haunted also.
      
    • There's a tool that can get rid of all the roaches.
    
    
  • Toddlers can play with those squat toilets.
  
  
• On lease length: sims rent indefinitely, but lease length indicates after how many days the grace period is, during which allows tenants to leave without additional fees and property owners can change the lease details or evict the household without any repercussions. Rent is paid every week.
  
• Residential Rental doesn't allow multi-lot type lots, but they have heard it. Anything in shared space will be used by every sim.
  
• Cross-pack rules: With Cats & Dogs expansion pack, you can disallow pets.
  
• Travelling between units causes a loading screen. One unit can be active at one time.
  
• Confirmation that the cheat for unlimited units (begins with bb.) is really generous and allows players to get out of control.
  
• Freedom given allows you to build non-functional units (1x1 square unit for example).
  
• There are no required objects for residential rentals.
  
• Converting lots to Residential Rental is easy as (as shown in the trailer) you can choose rooms and assign them to units.
