Premium Membership Land Options

[Roziela]

Hello,

I am looking into getting a premium membership so I can decorate/own a house. How do you choose the land option in lieu of a Linden Home? Do I have to choose a Home and then abandon it in order to gain access to the Mainland option? 

Thank you for your help!

You don't need to mess with the Linden home at all.  

Either pull up the map, check the box for showing land for sale -- you'll see yellow areas with $ on them. Clicking the $ will tell you the size and price.  Sometimes it is easier to start with viewing the map and then start TPing to locations and see how things look.

You can also use the inworld land search, but some folks don't like it and it doesn't show everything.

There are also auctions where you can buy mainland.

Note that if you have not ever bought L$ inworld, you will have a "waiting period".  This is because it takes a financial transaction -- buying L$, buying something on the MP, paying for Premium -- to start your financial clock.  During the first 30 days of that clock you are very limited in how much L$ you can buy - and it probably won't be enough to buy a piece of land.

I have bought $L and have a pretty decent amount for my limit, but the premium membership option only allows you to choose a Linden Home. Is there a way to skip that?

Yeah - just don't click on that link.  I just upgraded an alt to Premium and once I finished the buy, I simply went back to my Account Summary or logged out.
