  Small Update - 1.3

  Surprise, realtors!The previous update notes mentioned the game was moving into maintenance mode and would mostly just receive bug fixes. While that is still true, we decided to add a couple of small improvements based on player feedback and a few things we wanted to refine.ChangesAdded a vacancy system – rentals now have a chance to occasionally be vacant instead of always generating rentAdded a Net Monthly display to owned properties so it's easier to see whether you should rent them or flip and sellOwned property upgrade levels now increase rent, maintenance, and property valueMinor UI tweaksFixed minor bugsExisting saves should carry over and automatically adjust to the new system.Thanks for playing!— Sunny Island Studio

  Housing Market Update v1.2

  Hey everyone,This update expands the game’s money sinks and gives you something meaningful to work toward after winning or maxing out the MLS system. A few of you pointed out that progression hit a wall once you crossed the finish line. So this new update introduces personal property.The new My Property tab gives you two upgrade paths:Home upgrades - bigger and nicer, but increase the monthly mortgage expensesOffice upgrades - flat fee to upgrade, but increases the monthly incomeAnd yes, you can absolutely wait until after you’ve hit $1,000,000 and cleared your income-vs-expenses requirement… or you can upgrade everything early and make winning way harder on yourself.Patch Notes — v1.2NewAdded My Property tabAdded home upgrades and office upgradesChangesUpdated Win Game event textUpdated Stats panel to include property statsFixesFixed bug where shop upgrades appeared to reset when loading and advancing a monthFixed the bug that caused shop upgrades to sometimes reset to default values while increasing the cost of the upgradeGoing ForwardWith this update out, the game is shifting into maintenance mode to focus on the next project.Quick clarity: maintenance mode means support, patches, and fixes only — not abandonment. The game is considered complete on the development side, and I’ll still be here keeping it stable and playable.I’ll continue patching any issues that show up, so if you run into bugs, toss them here:https://steamcommunity.com/app/4068560/discussions/0/661592926180484220/ — Sunny Island Studio

  Update 1.1

  Fixed typo (“batter” → “better”) Added new MLS License System — purchase licenses to unlock higher upgrade tiers, similar to how real agents upgrade their licenses to access more listings and services. Each MLS license will allow three upgrades per license, except the last license, which allows maximum upgrades. Added MLS subscription info to the Stats panel. Added clearer win/lose requirement text. Added a display for your $1,000,000 win goal in the Stats screen. Added new win condition — rent profits now matter! To win, your passive income must be equal to or greater than your monthly expenses. Fixed a bug that could cause a player to lose even after winning. Fixed bug where matching a client to a property while in debt forced an instant failed game. Fixed an issue that could cause upgrades or investments to carry over when starting a new game in the same session.
