Downgrading difficulty

[Katsii Tennen]

Ok...I accept that I can't downgrade until my premium quarter is up in January BUT I was told that in order to downgrade I have to abandon my land.  So I abandoned my house in Tseki.  For these three months can I own land and receive my stipend?

Yes, you can.   Your Premium membership is pre-paid, so you have all the rights and privileges of Premium membershipo until your billing period ends.  Buy land, use the Premium sandboxes, contact Live Chat as much as you like, submit support tickets in all categories.....   Before the end of your Premium period, though, be sure that you have sold any mainland that you own.  (You can still own land in private estates as a Basic member and you can rent land anywhere.)
