Let me first say that the ability to see one's lawn decor and for those who have land plots to showcase their decorative abilities is great! However, it doesn't seem fair at all to those who purchased the game and also want land plots. I've thought about this and have come up with the perfect solution as I do not believe having a housing auction is the solution at all. I believe it will cause more chaos and upheaval than necessary.

I say this... just as you've made apartments instanced, so too should be a choice with land plots.

For instance, take the large housing plot. Allow the viewable plot to be purchased as first come first, served OR use that "curb appeal" plot as the auction property for that same $50mill. Then allow that same plot to have instanced versions that only visitors and owners are able to see the yard's decor. Mark down that price since it doesn't have that "curb appeal" status to $20 or $25mill.

That way every paying gamer has the luxury of a yard and basement workshop, if they so choose to. I feel it would be a win win for everyone.

Please leave comments, I would really love to hear everyone's thoughts. Would you agree or disagree with this suggested solution?
