I want to know if the OP got his house prior to the auto demo being put in. If so then there is no sympathy to be had, more then enough time has gone by that unless you are like super new too the game. You should be aware of the auto demo timer and have no one to blame but yourself. SE puts out the information to keep us informed its up too us after that too make sure we look at that information. Sympathy and understanding only go so far after that you are on your own for whatever happens.
