Not sure if anyone mentioned this, I read a few posts down and didn't see anything, but the more stars a place has, the rent will be more. I read that as I entered a lot, I was also trying to move others in and set up their units. But also what I saw some others did post is that the amenities would add more to the rent value then as well?
I read that rent is basically based on number of floor tiles and Rating, but the equipment (probably both inside unit and in shared unit/common space, and possibly a few more things will get calculated. Landlord doing good maintenance is probably only one of numerous details that can build a good rating, lot challenges/traits might add to this as well.
What disturbs me is if adding a tenant's personal belongings will increase the rent! I wish it was as simple as having a set rent when move in, then not adjusting it on a "daily basis" but maybe only if rating goes up. Personally I would do fine without the rating system, in my save it's more a matter of adding a few more residential possibilities in hoods where there are too few lots. If system was less complicated I guess there might be fewer bugs as well, but hey-ho, we'll learn as we go, and there's normally a soon-after-release patch anyway.
