every time i see that picture i always think of city planner plays :D

Ok, but my rent is too high in real life. Can those developers nuke MY landlord?

[-] [email protected] 74 points 1 month ago

Forgive my ignorance, but an apartment where the landlord is removed and people just pay building maintenance is... a condominium, no?

[-] [email protected] 90 points 1 month ago

If they don’t individually own the property but pay for upkeep and there is no landlord… that’s a housing cooperative, no?

I grew up in a community co-op! It was so great

[-] Nommer 31 points 1 month ago

It's more like co-owning. Both the owner and the HOA own the property. But at least with my HOA the agreement is they handle everything outside my walls, I handle everything inside.

[-] [email protected] 11 points 1 month ago

I didn’t know about the co-ownership. That makes HOA stories make more sense.

[-] [email protected] 13 points 1 month ago

HOA is just a name, they take many many forms. My grandparents neighborhood for example has an HOA that collects dues and the dues are used to pay to have the roads repaved or fixed when damaged, and that's it. No upkeep rules or anything like that, and there's only a handful of houses in their small neighborhood that look bad from the outside, but that's those people's business

I would never buy property subject to an HOA.

Depends who owns it / who payed to have it constructed. If the tenets own it and payed to have it constructed, or payed someone who payed someone... Then it's a condo or a co-op depending on whether you own a unit in the building or own x% of the building which entitles you to a unit.

If another organization, almost always some form of government, payed to have it constructed and owns it then it is public housing.

If it's anything like cities skylines original, houses just pop up according to demand with seemingly no construction cost calculated, probably because it would add a ton more complexity with mortgages and speculative markets etc. for little gain to players who mostly just want to play with trains and metros.

Tenants, fyi

Squatter mansion.

It's time to have life imitate art.

[-] [email protected] 41 points 1 month ago

I would have preferred to have it solvable through policy or something. A giant business, with high earning employees would of course raise the average rent if not regulated. I find it rather amusing, that it actually happened in the game as well without being explicitly build in.

[-] [email protected] 6 points 1 month ago

My thoughts exactly. Although. Reality is often stranger than fiction. So who knows what’s coming next for us 😆

[-] [email protected] 38 points 1 month ago

I keep forgetting that that's an option

[-] [email protected] 10 points 1 month ago

Did Sir want their slice of landlord rare? And with or without mint sauce on the side…

[-] [email protected] 2 points 1 month ago

Ask the sovereign citizens at [email protected] how that works out.

[-] [email protected] 21 points 1 month ago

I can't wait until this game is released

[-] sugar_in_your_tea 1 points 1 month ago

Same. I hear the early access has been rough.

I'm ready to buy once things work properly.

[-] [email protected] 2 points 1 month ago

I just hope it makes it out of development hell unlike Kerbal Space Program 2

[-] [email protected] 16 points 1 month ago

Haha...haha...ha....

[-] [email protected] 10 points 1 month ago

Making people in society feel like they own nothing and are getting milked by those few who do own everything is a good way to see things break down, it's happening real time, we're watching it right now in the US.
