Where do I find pre built houses, lots?

They are in the lots section of the gallery

That's what I feared. I looked in there and was hoping I was looking in the wrong section or something. Those folders are completely empty. I'll probably have to do a complete reinstall. Thanks!

Here's another question. Am I suppose to have a gallery option in the game because I only have one in the demo version. Maybe that's the problem. I have a "My Library" but not a gallery like the demo. Thanks.

Are these lots on the communtity gallery or in the ingame gallery?

The lots would be in the Gallery - that's the community one. The local one (your content) is the Library. Both are in-game, so I assume you meant ingame to be your library.
When you open the gallery (if you have online access on) it'll be Maxis-only by default - selecting "lots" on the left will show you only Maxis lots. I don't think there are any lots that come in the game until you actually save the Maxis ones to your library.

The only things in the gallery and my library are sims, no houses or lots. I'm always logged in to Origin but I haven't seen any lots whatsoever. I can see the player created sims just not the Maxis/EA created lots. Odd. Thanks for your responses. I'll contact them and see what's up with it.

Edit: I don't have an in game gallery either. Maybe that's why my game keeps crashing every 30 minutes.

I couldn't enter the community gallery. It say "connection is required". When I click connect it takes a long time but no result comes up. Can anyone help? :/

Hello @black_angel
Try shutting down your computer completely. Start the computer again, then launch the game and see if that helps.

Good luck with that. Sometimes the Gallery is really finnicky. It's annoying.

Hi, so I have the full version of Sims and I really need help with these houses. I've looked in my gallery and have done everything. Do I need to have friend on my account to get a community house build. I'm really so confused. My friend tried to help me and she sent me here.

What houses? And I'm not sure what you mean by "community house build"? Do you mean the public venues in game? Like cafe, restaurant, spa and so on? Build them yourself, or download from Gallery? You can freely download any house (or room or sims) from the gallery, into your game. You don't need to have or add any friends to your list.

do you have the lots and houses box check marked or try typing houses in the search bar.
