    I was watching a Game Changer and I think they said the rent is only paid out once a week, on a Wednesday. So, your earnings will be for the previous week, like a real-life paycheck. You also have that pesky $50 fee, so you have to take that into account too when charging.


    What is the $50 fee for? And is it the tenant that pays it, or the owner? And is it for each unit?


    The owner pays it, but I think it comes out of the rent collected. Its daily unit tax. I saw Deligracy's video about that and so far I haven't seen anything like that happen. She did say that it was known at the time as well, and that it was to be fixed before it was released, so I'm hoping that's true because the struggle is real.

    I did some test run to see if/how rent works and the daily tax is paid via the landlord's bills. You can find it in the bills summary on the mailbox (I think "other taxes" or something like that).

    I've just finished a build of three (I'd say) mid-range units, basement utilities and rooftop patio in Bridgeview, Newcrest and the rent has somehow come out at over $4 Billion! What the hell have I done wrong?

    @BearyBry you did nothing wrong, it seems to be a bug. At least yours isn't over $34 Billion like Deligracy got during her early access LP.
  • @BearyBry yep it's a bug
