This happened to EVERY SINGLE house in Willow Creek for me. Even after rebuilding ALL of them, they disappeared again. Then I built another house for one family, played for a long time, saved, exited, and reloaded. The house was gone again. And the sims are never "compensated" for the lost objects with simoleons...

You can attach the txt file to your post directly.
see my below post, I'm sure it will work out if you try my method. don't reupload. My all houses were gone in willow creek too. Select the empty lot and select build mode without entering the live mode. See my below post :D
Did you save your game with the lots gone ?
It's possible this only works if you didn't save your game but thank you very much for posting this.
Nope, I did save my game with lots gone. And they came back once I've done this
Great. Thank you
Hmm this didn't work for me. When I went straight into build mode, the lot didn't appear. It was just an empty lot, like it shows on the manage worlds map. I've also tried moving the save files to the desktop and that didn't work either. I would try to rebuild them, but I have no way of even getting the lots saved onto my gallery since they won't appear. Do you think it might help to delete any of my save files or anything like that?
Willing to share your save game ?
If so, please zip up this folder: documents\electronicarts\thesims4\saves, upload to mediafire or dropbox and PM me the link.
I'm having the same issue.. None of these things have worked for me. Every time I try build mode or a sim travels somewhere the house is just gone..
Would very much like some help please.
What happens if you try save your game under a new name ? Do you get a save error ?
