About

Houses are important assets on the server. Houses allow players to store virtual and physical inventory items, which is useful for doing runs or storing stolen items. If the owner of a house fails to access the house every 45 days, they will lose ownership of that house.

Once someone buys a house of any sort, they will have the option to give temporary keys to other players. Temporary keys can be shared through the keys app of the "y" menu. Temporary keys only grant access to a house's virtual inventory, not the physical inventory. If a homeowner looks at their house and presses the Windows key, they'll receive the option to share permanent keys with other players. Permanent keys allow players to access a house, even if the owner isn't connected to the server. Homeowners can share a maximum of 20 permanent keys.

House owners also have the choice to upgrade the virtual and physical storage capacity of most houses. The prices and amounts of storage upgrades are covered below.

Similar to gang sheds, houses can be raided by the Altis Police Department if they gain probable cause to do so. Both the homeowner and key-holders can provide probable cause for a house to be searched.

Realtor

When a player wants to sell a property, they have the choice of either (1) selling the house to the bank for 50% of the initial purchase price plus a small percentage of the purchased upgrades or (2) listing the house on the market for a price of their choosing. When a player lists their house for sale on the market, they will be charged the greater of the following: $75,000 or 5% of the listing price.

When players pay for the house to be listed on the market, that house will appear for those who use the realtor to search for houses. Houses cannot be bought and sold from the realtor. Players must travel to the house location to interact with that property.
