Homes
Overview
Homes cost the same whether you buy and existing house, or build a new one - see The PF Downtime Buildings page for the base prices - and remember that there will (almost certainly) be a Licence Fee to add to the cost.
There are different types of 'home' available for purchase. However, they do come with running expenses which are, generally, met from your Cost of Living expenses.

- Income: Your Monthly Cost of Living expenses.

If you own a business, you can put the profits towards your cost of living expenses. A good business income, will pay for a mansion, an exceptional business might even pay for a Noble Estate.
