Trying to setup an old lot to be a residential small business and cannot open as it says there is no valid lot and that I should purchase a venue. Did I set this up wrong or am I missing something? A...

I bought a new lot for my small business. Registered the business, built and set it up, even hired employees and ran it, successfully, for a day. It will not let me assign it to the lot it is on. It will only let me choose a lot in the Nordhaven world that her previous business was on.

She owned a pottery business in the new world and then sold it to buy an Art business in Windenburg. She can not assign the Art business to any lot other than the one that the pottery business is on. 

I play on XBOX series X.

    I commented on that one too, it was an empty residential lot and when I placed the small business/built-it I changed the lot type to Small Business venue. It let me open it while I was there but after I went home and came back it wouldn't open again because of it not being assigned to a lot. I was able to fix it by buying the lot again then the small business panel. However I had already paid for the lot and business in full once already, so I had to cheat the money back.

    To be clear she owned it as an empty small business lot. After placing a lot from the gallery and setting up/renovating to match my business it wouldn't allow me to assign it to the lot I owned. I had to buy it again for it work.

      Would you mind adding some pictures to illustrate ?

      There's currently a few similar issues and it's a bit hard to tell if they are connected or the same or completely different.
