Can't repurchase a previously owned retail lot
My game has only been installed for about a month. I have downloaded content from the gallery but none of it is in use on this particular lot. Everything else is EA/Maxis created content that came with the game.
I built a retail lot and Sim A bought it and has been running it without issue for a month.
I realized that it was not designated as a bar/nightclub so my Sim's weren't able to go there for a party I was throwing earlier this week.
Today I decided to re designate the place as a bar or night club. To do this I had to sell the business. So I did. Now I am unable to repurchase the lot. I get the error Sims can only purchase unowned businesses etc etc I restarted the game. I restarted my computer. I saved the lot to my gallery and restarted again. Placed the lot back in the game, same error.
From what I know it isn't possible to own a bar. You can run a restaurant when you have Dine Out or a store when you have Get To Work. Even become a vet with Cats & Dogs, but not own a bar. Nor is it an active job.
