I can't recommend strongly enough that you avoid Fairchang at all costs. These people change the rules after you rent. They don't allow you to have the plot you rent as all land, or even break it into islands or anything. They want total control over what you do with the land YOU rent and even insist you break your land up and allow everyone to sail right through it at their leisure - rather than use the public channels that everyone leaves free around the outside and between plots. RIDICULOUS! I WOULD NEVER RENT FROM THESE PEOPLE AGAIN !!!! SPREAD THE WORD!!!!

So far on Zindra I've seen miles and miles of land for sale and no one buying them because the land barons are charging outrageous prices for them. 1,200 USD for A HALF SIM, AND 50 USD FOR 2048sqm of land! I could buy a full simulator from LL and spend 3 months worth of Maintenance fees on the money for that half sim ALONE! I understand the Lindens want to run a Minarchy and not want to stick their hand in things lest they break crap, but there has to be some resolution to the problem of exorbitant land prices. A 2048 Square meter parcel shouldn't cost 12,000L$! At most, it should be around 9,000 or 8,000! It's going to get to the point where, outside of a small select few - No one will buy the land! I've owned land for quite some time, and even though I've gotten some of that land for a steal through LL's Abandoned Land program, I wouldn't mind paying a higher rate. And god above will I wonder what the Lindens will do when a bunch of real estate agencies own all this land, and no one will buy them. And before you pull out the near-ad-hominem 'hurr-durr get a job' Crap, I get paid 32,400 USD a year.
