The residence selection command does not appear

I started the Legacy Challenge, but I can't select the required vacant lot of more than 50x50 in any world. I can't even select a large house, and I can't see the details. I was prompted to restart...

OK. 

Do you have enough money to buy the lots ? I just started a save from scratch and get the same if I don't. You do seem to be on the move in screen.

You can try the freerealestate cheat so you can buy any lot without having the money.

  1. While on the map where you move a Sim in into a home (like your screenshot), open cheat console (however you do that on console)
  2. Type: freerealestate on (you don't need testingcheats so it should not affect your trophies)
  3. Hit enter
  4. The lot should now turn into a green one that you can buy.

 

If you just wanna build on that lot, just move them in to a cheaper lot they can afford and then go back to the map from there and enter the lot in build mode from the map.

Thank you for your detailed reply.crinrict​ 

I tried it right away and got the error message shown in the image. What should I do?

I have §20,000.

    Hm, weird that it cares about testingcheats on console. 

    If you're not concerned about trophies, enter the cheat testingcheats first to enable them. If that doesn't work, try testingcheats on or testingcheats true.

    If you are concerned about trophies, move them in somewhere, then use the motherlode cheat to get enough money (that def doesn't need testingcheats). Then move them in.

      Thank you.crinrict​ 

      I want the trophies, so I'll try the second method.

      I don't know how to transfer trophies, so could you please explain the steps for the second method in detail?

      Also, if I use testingteats on, will I no longer be able to earn trophies in new games after that?

        Hi jasminnejasminne​ 

        As I understand it (I don't have a console), turning the cheats on is per save only. So if you want to earn them later on in a new save, you should be able to do so. It's just that save. 

        I'm also not exactly sure how trophies work on console but I didn't mean to transfer the trophies. Just the Sim.

        So bascially

        1. Place your Sim on a lot you can afford
        2. Use the cheat motherlode to give them more money (that really should not use testingcheats). You get 50k each time so you might need to do it multiple times.
        3. After that, click on the phone and choose to move lots, then move to the lot you choose.
