Glad to see James already getting into the slumlord mindset by constantly looking for the cheapest options
Haha, even my own apartment is as cheap as possible!
Lol
😂😂😂
I've been thinking of slumlord vibes too giave the land lord a big lush apartment in the ground floor and the renters slums above he he
Build yourself a mansion, 4 stories above ground, then the slums in the 4 basement floors.@@jocelynshanks6199
It’d be fun for Laird to dumpster dive for some furniture for the tenants apartments
omg yes! i would love that
SUCH A GOOD IDEAA
Maybe if laird is a spell caster with repario but otherwise fixing up the furniture is too frustrating
Love this idea!
Yees!
Should be a communal laundry room in the basement too! And using all the stained floors from Strangerville.
Oh god 😂
Ugh the washing machines and dryers be breakin down too often 😭
I was thinking the same thing!! Laundry!!
@@Yeah_You_Thought Realism!
@@Iva744 I actually made a communal laundry room in my apartments 😂😂 let's see how long it will take to break down
I'm excited to see everything the community makes for for for for For Rent.
Stop😂
The likes on this are 4 4 4 😂

I'm so looking forward to this. I remember in sims 2 making my own apartments. You can do so much with it. Can't wait to build normal ones likea boarding house or trailer park. But I really want to make tiny apartments and a converted storage unit complex. Trying to come up with some out of the box ideas.
I have some fun ideas I really want to do too! I love the idea of a converted storage unit complex! Have fun!
I made a converted storage unit apartment complex. I can't wait for this pack so it can finally be fully realized!
@@JamesTurnerYThow about a converted shipping container complex with maybe a courtyard in the middle? 👀
How about a boarding school for horse lovers? Put stall on the bottom floor for each apartment to have a horse and the apartments above...
@@fanaticc27slay
You creating the upstairs and making it feel like they are renovating. It is literally the reason why I watch you for the grunge and the creativity. Literally love all of your content
Back story idea- this apartment block was purchased by a developer a few years back and they renovated the first two buildings but went broke before the last one could be done. Ultimately they went bankrupt and due to the hazardous condition of the remaining building they couldn’t sell it so the whole space was foreclosed on. Now it’s just sitting there, wasting away and because no one has been willing to buy it from the bank and put the work in!
I’m excited for this LP, it was definitely made for your playing style! Fingers crossed it functions well and isn’t riddled with bugs 🤞🏼
i like this, I might be my head canon for my own lp.
the recreation area reminds me so much of the abandoned trash lot they turned into a baseball field on hey Arnold and I am here for it
hey arnold? how old are you
Yes! Every time I'm in a blighted city and see an abandoned lot full of trash I just want to turn it into a sports field.
@@kimkardashiansdaddy2744Now I feel old..
Yesssss!
My first apartment weirdly looked just like this one. There was even a full size window right in the shower that had a privacy frost on it, and then 6 months later they replaced all the building windows and removed the frost and we were told we could add no decals or anything to the new windows. So I would only shower at night and I would put a sheet over the window and it would get soaking wet... and I was on the first floor next to a busy sidewalk............... very fun. I'm excited to watch this lets play 😄
What the hell 😭
That’s crazy that they didn’t let you put anything on it! I would have showered only in the dark during the day with the sheet covering it cause it’s harder to see into dark buildings during the day
Omg that’s horrible 😢
My first house was older, and very clearly originally only had a tub, so there was a full size window in the shower. We bought a plastic shower curtain and cut it down to fit over the window area and blocked it that way until we could renovate.
@@Chicady-uq5fh Even at night I would only shower in the dark!! I was always so paranoid that someone walking by would see the outline of me showering bc of the light being on lol
This will be the first pack I’ve bought in a while. I think it will give me a new fresh outlook on the game
Hopefully you can enjoy it glitches free 😊
Thank you for being positive about a pack. 🥰
I mean I think everyone is with this one. The other ones are money grabs@@StinaBelle717
yeah, it's going to be one of those packs that fits right in with the rest of the game i think!
Same, hopefully 🤞🏽 it launches good with little bugs
The two doors immediately next to each other is very accurate to the crappy apartment I lived in for a few years lol. This actually looks super similar to mine with the hall way in the middle and units on either side. Later on I think putting laundry machines in the dirty downstairs area with the water heater would be good bc I definitely didn’t have in-unit laundry.
I love seeing James getting so excited about this pack! I’m so excited for this next let’s play. Some suggestions: bringing back the “using furniture we find in the dumpster to furnish” challenge because I feel it seems realistic, maybe using the home chef hustle selling table to make cash early on?? AND doing what we did in dream home decorator and “buying” the building next door to this build and renovating that too.
it would be cool to add a decommissioned “pool” by doing an open ceiling basement with cracks everywhere and weeds growing in it!! adding a little fountain spout in the cracks like it was leaking would be a fun touch too
Something I really struggle with in building apartments is making the shapes of the individual units look different. In my building the biggest unit is a 3 bedroom unit for a family with kids, and the smallest unit (mine lol) is a micro-studio. I'd love to see somebody build something like that in game, where the units are suuuuper different .
Yeah totally! I definitely don't want them all to be the same - I think if we do end up using this lot, the upstairs will be quite different and if we did a 3rd floor, we could do one large apartment too!
@@JamesTurnerYT Ohh a double story loft would be amazing.
@@Yennefferooooooo
I have a treehouse (from a different video by James) in Newcrest. 🤔 I could build into a complex, with a common area connected by platforms... I'm inspired ✨
The basement also can be a laundry room apartment buildings have that in some places in the city
im so excited for more city like worlds! myself and most of the people playing can't relate to american suburbia or rural living. i haven't been this excited for a pack or willing to buy early since paranormal stuff
I'm definitely excited for more cities and also the totally different style and culture it'll bring!
I wonder if you'll be able to make separate buildings work as apartments, like building a trailer park and renting out each trailer. Or a lot filled with tiny homes and make some sort of commune. I have so many ideas for gameplay!
You think like me 😂 I actually made a home that looks like a trailer ❤ and I have a few micro homes. Trailer park would be a fun project
I want to do a lot like this for each base game world. I already am mostly done with the willow creek build. It’s two shotgun houses together one modern and one traditional.
Oh that's a cool idea! Have one apartment / multi-home residence in each world and try to own them all haha
I think that's great. Willow Greek having a shotgun, Newcrest having apartments similar to the ones in Eco-Lifestyle, and Oasis Springs having maybe a converted large traditional Spanish home that was turned into Apartments?
@@hyejinmoon4882 And Strangerville can have a trailer park. Eco-Lifestyle can have converted shipping containers. I'm getting so many ideas for this pack!
@@JamesTurnerYT That would be a great goal for the let's play. But maybe not every world, because I think that would be 22 houses in total (- batuu and vacation worlds), if that's even possible.
@@Jonaelize well they did say base-game worlds, which makes it 3 :)
I wish they would release building cheat-sheets with the pack announcements. Just a list of things you will need (like that boiler or the mailbox) and how big they are, so one can start planning and building.
I am probably going to wait until this pack goes on sale (though I feel like the last three packs haven't gone to the standard expansion sale price yet lol) but I am kind of excited to turn every single family lot into a multi family lot just like where I live lol.
From what the latest packs have done, it probably won’t have a significant sale until late next year (or 2 other EPs).
The way it's still nicer than my first student apartment 😂
I can't wait for the new let's play! You could also turn them into studios instead of 1 bedroom, just to mix it up a bit.
With the bright lights you can select a few in live mode and shift click to set them to flicker (from paranormal stuff pack iirc) for the vibes
I think I'd find that very annoying lol
I'd put an empty basement where I plan to put a pool, and decorate as such. Also, should totally get a dumpster for the lot. Most apartments have them for their tenants anyway, but what if your Landlord used it to eek out some extra cash?
Yeah I wanted to, it was just going to cost too much!
Should have half-walled the upstairs hallway, and a few places where you had windows. It's "under construction."@@JamesTurnerYT Edit: Sorry, I hadn't finished the vid when I commented.
I love how lived in all your builds are, so realistic. Your lets plays are my favourite.
The bartered upstairs reminds me of Dr Gluon’s house flipper series!
Pretty impressed by the creativity with this lot and can tell how much fun you had as well building it! Looking forward to your LP.
I'd like to build something like a bathhouse that can double as the community space, and the apartments would just have sleeping, dining, toilet. I hope the pack lets me do that.
At first I wasnt super into this upcoming pack because I figured it was another career I would never choose, but I realized I can keep my sims family in the same lot without controlling them now!
Edit: misspelled a word
One great thing about this pack is more sims can be added to each world. Instead of them floating in the void lol. Also if the devs updated Get To Work, so you could actually have multiple businesses on one lot using this same concept
When James was placing the trash in the communal area I realised it would be so cool to have an empty pool (basement) with trash just piled up in it.
I can't wait for this expansion pack ! I thought growing together was good and changed a lot, but this one... I am so excited to be able to build apartments complexes and other stuff with several tenants. I was pretending to do it with the roommates feature, but... it was not working really well (to be fair it was not what it was ment for XD). I'm hyped for this pack, and for you LP around it !
I love this lot. It’s gonna be so much fun to see it go from rundown to new and spiffy! 💯💯💯
I really love builds like this... because I love the idea of flipping things... So this is just awesome. I can't wait to get the new pack, use this lot, and build that dang pool out back!!! Thank you James for such an awesome build and creative Idea
Love your videos! Sooo excited for this new pack!!! Been waiting for a pack like this for awhile. I love how you did this apartment rundown!
I like the build James does. They're so creative. I will definitely watch his LP when the For Rent pack comes out.
I've been so addicted to apartmemt building since the announcment ! Sims 2 apartment building was always my therapy. I am so excited to see this video!!
Angling the two decorative buildings like that to fill up the lot give more to me the look that you're sharing your residential space with a middle school.
Wonderful build, James. I love it! I really do hope you will be starting out as a tenant first, before becoming a landlord. Finding a cheap place to rent and then trying to save up for a property while paying rent in a rubbish place would be perfect for a Rags to Riches. So excited.
I look forward to making my old apartment complex. Only 2 units in my complex were renovated, the other 13 were grungy and in need of remodel. I was fortunate to have the first updated one.
don't forget if you end up having the pre-build (early access) to show how you merge your game back into the bigwallet save
For dingy builds like this you can use the debug double bed that you can find in the dumpsters. It is so cheap!
I love this lot so much! I don’t ever download from other builders unless it’s a fixer-upper because I enjoy building but I can see myself downloading this lot for my own gameplay with For Rent!
I am so psyched for this lets play! Very cool dingy-build!!
I did something similar with growing together debug building. But I build on top of it and pretend my sims live in the roof top of the building.
That's a fun idea!
I loooooove these dingy to-be-renovated half-done builds!! Can't wait for the new series, I dropped it when you started High School Years and Horse Ranch 🥲
I love the grungy builds! Very excited for the next LP
I can’t wait to see the final result of this build, good work James!
this is making me so excited for this pack. i just moved into my first apartment this year,and now i can build my actual apartment and fill it with sims, which would be so much fun ahh
I really enjoy the glee James exudes while building gross, junky places. Also can't wait to see what Dr Gluon does with the new pack 😆
I’m so excited for this pack and I can’t wait to see how James develops this apartment
Very excited to see this build renovated!!
i went back and watched your mini series of the tenants last night and i am so excited to see your lets play of this pack! It’s gonna be so fun to watch you get creative renovating and being a slumlord. 🤣
Super excited for this pack! Having just come home from a holiday in Morocco I’m working on converting a Riad into an apartment building, having a lot of fun with it. 😅
I am so ready for this let's play you have NO idea!!! So excited!!!
I love the rundown look so much, it kinda reminds me of Hazel's first house in the dream home decorator series!
So excited for the new series! I’m really hoping they go back and make elevators functional for our builds as a base game update, would make a lot of sense for the new pack
i like the third floor and how open it is, i hope your sim renovates is to be their home
an apartment building with a rooftop grill area for cook outs, and then room for a pool on the ground would be awesome. I can't wait for this pack to come out!
My favorite gameplay set-up! Thanks James ♥
I'm so excited for this pack! I can (hopefully) have a way for sims to have homes with a rental unit in the basement or an outbuilding
Love James content always even if I’m not enthused by something new in Sims 4
I did that same building exactly last week. I made a 3 building complex with pool and courtyard of tables. I put fitness on 1st level with a laundry room, 1 apartment has a managers leasing agents office. Dont know if we'll need it but its there. then 2 top apartments are rentals.
I'm very excited for the new expansion pack so excited that I pre-ordered it and I plan on making Studio apartments once the new pack comes out
Looking forward to seeing Rags to Rental playthrough! I still need to watch the others as I’ve gotten quite invested in the Bigwallet family
Im so excited for this pack! Especially to be able to fully play in lots that I've built before (townhouse or apartment) with just one playable "home" and the others emoty. 😅
I love this! Can't wait to get the pack and to download this build :D
I’m excited to see the let’s plays for this expansion!
Wood ceilings in the bathrooms is an interesting choice.
I’m really looking forward to this pack , I don’t play the game anymore due to no laptop or computer but I definitely would buy this pack can’t wait to see James’ content around this pack! This video has me excited
I am seriously so excited for this chapter of the Bigwallet family. Can’t wait!
Please make a trailer park. That would be a great rental for Strangerville. You could use the aeroplane lot as it's quite big and is near the other trailer park.
I was just apartment shopping and most one bedroom layouts had the door to the bathroom from the bedroom. I know not ideal for guests but makes sense if it’s just you or you and partner.
Very excited for new R2R! I'm currently rewatching the Cottage Living one and can't wait for something new 😄😄
I see it now! James’s bucket list of being a slumlord. 🤪
I'm so excited for this series, bigwallet real estate here we come
I'd watch three hours of more builds in this style tbh, I love abandoned rundown and/or under construction builds :) /gen
In the us most apartments don’t have overhead lights. Just in the kitchen maybe a dining room hanging light, and wall lights above sink in bathroom. We usually have to use lamps everywhere
I'm in the middle of a house buy and my anxiety is keeping me from eating and sleeping. You and Deli are keeping me going just by watching your videos.
I'm getting such sims 2 vibes from this build and I love it!! So excited for Rent to Riches 🤩🤩
Oh absolutely looking forward to this playthrough
I learned more about free decorative items in this video than anything else XD good job!
Maybe you could take out the living room furniture (since it's less necessary), and then try to finish furnishing the initial apartments mainly with flea market/dumpster dived/woodworking table-made stuff for an added challenge. I think years of watching this channel has made me far more masochistic in my play style, lol.
Love it. I weirdly love grungy buildings 😂 I built one and it was my favorite 😂
i cant wait for this expansion pack!! i already know james is gonna make the best content out of it
14:17 "Oh that is good dinge" has now entered my vocabulary forever, thanks James
That little add on in the second story would be great for shared laundry…
I feel like building a run down lot like this before the pack comes out will just result in you changing the whole thing before you play. There will be so many new and interesting items and probably a whole list of requirements needed that this building might not have. It looks fantastic but I feel like there will be a redo of this build when the pack comes out
The requirements look to be the letterboxes, water heater and electricity panel. The rest should be easy to adjust! I also plan on having many residences throughout our let's play, so this isn't going to move in to the new world or change style drastically
If you move the kitchen to where you currently have the couch, you could turn the current kitchen into dining/hallway, then you could squeeze two bedrooms in the back there. It might be good for the second apartment
I'm so excited to be able to make my senior living facility functional ❤
I loooove this idea! cant wait for the gameplay!
I really hope the pack will allow for some community space utilities, so you can have for example one large laundry room, or have other utilities/devices/items centralized in general.
I really hope he puts this on the gallery, it's great build to start on.
I'm so here for a grotty build! I feel like they always have so much character
I feel like the effort James is putting into really trying to maximize profits by squeezing as much as possible into a space while using the least money possible is very realistic.
"ah, that is good dinge" I appreciate you, James.
This is so impressive. I dread having to build multiple apartments myself.
So excited for this!!!!
Reminds me of my uncle's house. For many years, the basement floor was a kind of open empty space full of debris. He intended to convert it to rentable space, but it was just an open pit for a while. My cousins caught spiders down there. Eventually he built rooms lol.
I love it! But honestly thought you would go with more from the basement treasures kit with the flickering lights and broken objects. Also that cheap bed and tv from eco lifestyle could be funny!
Looking forward to the shenanigans 😁
