Acquiring an Eatate

Housing Placard

In order to acquire an estate, free companies must first unlock the Land Acquisition entitlement by achieving rank 6. After obtaining sufficient rank, simply examine the placard in front of the empty plot of land you wish to purchase. Its current price will be displayed along with a devaluation timer, if applicable. Only free company members with the proper authorization may purchase land.

Each residential district is divided into a number of identical wards. Even if the plot of land you desire has already been purchased in a certain ward, it may still be available in another.

Building an Estate Hall

In order to build an estate hall on a plot of land, players must first acquire a construction permit. A construction permit can be purchased from the Housing window while on your property. Once purchased, the estate will be immediately available, and you will be able to give it a name and set access and greeting message settings.
