Homes
Everyone needs somewhere to live and the better the houses you own, the higher your Influence and prestige. While you get Bonus Properties as your investments grow, you can buy extra houses if you want to.
Urban Housing
The 'normal' housing that you find in towns and cities. Dwelling in this list can be upgraded to more luxurious dwellings in this list. If you meet the criteria, and you pay the BP difference, you may upgrade a property on this list to a property on one of the other lists, of the same ★ value.

NOTE - Standard Homes are always located in a town or a city.
Rural Housing
Normally found in rural or hinterland areas, you MIGHT get permission to build a Fortified Dwelling inside a town or a city - if you ask nicely! You can upgrade a Villa to a Fortified Manor, if you pay the difference in BP costs. This is a more limited approach to take as you cannot 'Upgrade' to any other lists. You can, of course, build other houses from other lists when you have the BP or are awarded a 'bonus' property.
In a rural setting these properties could serve as a Hunting Lodge or a Country Estate for a noble, a rural home for an Aristocrat or as the heart of a ranch, Vineyard or other specialised country estate.

Caster's Housing
If you are spell caster, of any type you can choose to follow a more traditional development style. Again, it is a bit more limited, because your upgrade route, for a Caster's House, ends at the Caster's Tower. You can, of course, build other houses from other lists when you have the BP or are awarded a 'bonus' property. You get a good sized room or an apartment for your personal use when you are in town.

NOTE: This is a Three Step List: Master Craftsman > Alchemist OR Exotic Artisan OR Herbalist > Caster's Tower
Secondary Housing
Other Properties that that you own maintain a room or an apartment for your use when you are in town. You can stay for free when you visit or assign them to your followers. However, you always have to pay the full BP cost for these buildings. They cannot be used as an upgrade for your Bonus Housing.
NOTE : This is a secondary page that doesn't get updated as frequently as primary pages and you should check the cost of these buildings on their appropriate pages, before committing to buy.
