Look at that, an on-time launch for a change!

Apartments are now available in the following cities:

New York
London
Shanghai
Delhi

To purchase an apartment visit the real estate agency in the city you want to buy in. Apartments are quite expensive, and furnishing them is also costly, so you probably should wait if your short on funds.

There are two types of furniture that aren't yet working:

1) Study Furniture / Case File storage: These items will allow you to save case files, as in detective agencies, but this functionality is not yet finished.

2) Bookshelves: Bookshelves will eventually allow your guests to read books that you have collected (and gain the experience from doing so), but these are also currently incomplete.

Enjoy.

No show apartment, sorry. You'll have to see if you can get invited by somebody who owns one :)

When you buy an apartment, it is completely empty.

You furnish the rooms as you want. You can buy decorations and furniture for them.

Decorations just make the place look nicer.

Furniture serves various uses:

* Containers - Store your items
* Desks/Filing Cabinets - Store case files (not working yet)
* Sofa Sets - Private chat room
* Dining Sets - Private Message board
* Bookshelves - allow guests to read your books (not working yet)

In general, you're going to spend as much money on furnishings as you do on the apartment itself. So, make sure you've got significant cash, or consider a smaller place.

You can always move into a large or smaller apartment, or move cites, but all that costs money.

LMAO you guys I just spent more on furnishing my 2 rm apartment than I did my whole RL house, INCLUDING electronics. This is a trip, you guys, thank you! :)

Thanks. I understand we can only own one apartment - this right? Shame, I'd like to try for one in each city, after all we can own property in the real world in more than one place! Then perhaps we could have a suitcase to travel between homes - carrying one piece of equipment and/or one item of clothing or one case (should we really want to take a case with us for some obscure reason!). What about it???

I really like my new apartment but it is really lonely in this building just me and the doorman. The building is huge and Ive wandered the halls top to bottom and there isnt another soul in the building its really spooky. Thanks ben for the great new addition

Ben just a thought, it would be nice to have the option when solving favors or AI cases to store equipment in apartment or agency headquarters. Had to check to see if this option was available and found that it isnt at this time.

Okay, I hate to start whinging immediately after you adding this new feature, but I do have a teeny request:

Is there a way to see who is visiting your apartment from the "front door?"

I would just like to ask one thing; (without spoiling the surprise obviously!)

If you get a multi-roomed apartment, are all the rooms the same size as the one you get with a studio?
