    I love the homes on beach, with sand,  but I must focus on two points.

    1.  Change means losing my current location.
    2. It's highly unlikely that I get a better one.

    I think my house game ends here :)

    I think that is a lovely parcel.  And you have water all around.  That is what everyone wants.   I wouldn't risk abandoning this one right now,  as sand on the oceanfront is going to be very very hard to find at this point.  However, if they are releasing more of these homes next year, then there might be more available with sand then.

    Mine is completely empty. It’s a week before Christmas and a lot of people are either incredibly busy, or very depressed- or both in some cases.

    It’ll get furnished when I have the time and strength and there’s a good chance that won’t be until sometime in January. I bet I’m not the only one.

    Yeah I haven't had much of a chance either to decorate.  Can't decide on what house yet and people are already making some add ons.  I always take my time decorating mine will probably never be done.  And I am with @BJoyful there are houses to see and decorating to copy! 😁

    And even if people don't decorate the parcels look fabulous anyways!

    Hey guys. 😃 On the new Victorians, when somebody not on your house's access list tries to click on a door, there's a knocking sound!

    I think that is pretty cool!  Scared the crap out of me though the first time I heard it. 😃

    Good abandons too, so don't be afraid. You have 5 times/24 hours to pick a home, and I think you find one you want to keep. At least until we start talking about new regions over the New Year.

    Just agreeing with you as I have always been able to get some pretty good locations with abandoned parcels.  You'd be surprised what people give up.  Even waterfront because it was either too sandy or not sandy enough or the house doesn't face the way they want it too.  

    Lots of  parcels still out there for the taking!

    Does anyone have any ideas about the time of release on the homes?  I would love to get a Victorian and I see there are many still yet unowned.  I know LL has been mixing

    up the actual time of release so it's not always the same but is there a general trend?  Early AM's, evening, overnights, etc.

    You should be able to try for one now.  There is lots of homes still unclaimed.  Just go to the land page and go for it!

    Everyones loving the new Victorian homes..and the trads.. and ..im over here like ..i like the medowbrook loftrooms ..*dodges stones thrown at me* .. i will have a pic or two up soon.. i just find them to be very light and airy and not so.. boxed in... 

    Well I would love to see a pic of it!  Even though I really like the new LH's I have always had a quad home in meadowbrook and always loved it.  I loved all the windows and how open it was.   There have been a few posters here that have stated they want to keep their older home too so you are not alone.

    Not sure if anyone can answer this or not.

    Relating to that connecting area, right now it's extremely high and hilly. Would it be left like that or would it be leveled out? I happened to get a house in Caladium today which backs up on to that "mountain" that is there now and I'm wondering if it will remain that way or eventually I'll be looking onto another house. 

    Thoughts? 

    Yeah I am on Banebury up against the mountains too.  Now it would make sense to use the mountains to divide the Traditional from the Victorian ones, but you never know what they will do.  I am HOPING they will keep the mountains and do some landscaping, but expecting that they may flatten it and put houses there.  But I am not going to worry about it now,  I am keeping this parcel and I will see what happens and make a permanent decision then.

    Okay so my alt got the most amazing Victorian spot. I can't give it up. Definitely only intending to have that month of premium on that avi though, so what do I have to do to take as much control of the parcel as I can on my main? I've added myself to the access list on the house panel, to the security panel...do I have to do anything else? At the end of the month when the alt's premium expires will she still own the parcel - just not be able to access it? Someone help reassure my paranoid sanity 😀

    The only way your main can take control of the parcel is you will have to release it and hope your main can get it back and that really is a long shot.  Someone else will most likely get it before you do.  If you want to keep the spot you will have to keep paying premium on your alt.

    In fact, I'm sure there are many parents who would prefer it be after New Years, when kids are all back in school.

    For sure, it would be terrible to have to lock up the kids in the closet while house hunting.  But you know..............................priorities! 🤣

  10. I bought tons of things during the AF sale so I will probably use that stuff along with other stuff I have.  I am not going to buy anything specific for these new houses until they are released and I can actually put some things out and see how it looks.

  11. I still have tons of excitement for the homes and the Victorians that are coming out.  I am not bothered by seeing the mainland and Bellisseria being closer together.    It is like having peace and quiet in the middle of a storm.   Mainland to me has always been chaotic and out there in my face and the LH's to me has always been about simple, quiet and peaceful.

    I don't put too much stock into maps, I want to see the area and be in it.   Maps tell you nothing.   I don't really see where stuff is really cloned that much other than some of the houseboat islands but those make sense to me.

    I also think that we have all become a little obsessed with these new houses and trying to find perfection.  Not that I am criticizing cause I have been doing it myself.  I currently have a camper, a houseboat and a traditional house.  And yes I have a 4th alt for a month to try out the victorian.  I have never had more than one premium account and now I have like 4.  I know at some point I am going to have to just go down to one.   But I have them because I am really enjoying this whole process of the new LH and watching it unfold.

    I think we also have to be careful that we don't have too high expectations.  There is nothing wrong either with taking a break if you need one.
