ThatDutchPerson Posted December 12, 2021 Share Posted December 12, 2021 Detailed Description Add a permanent selling price cap to properties. Recently a thread popped up thats asking for $300.000 for a Rancho Project Housing Unit. Its not against the rules to ask 300K for such a place, but it isn't realistic or RPQM-standard either. I don't think the below topic exemple is the appropiate intention of the property rules. I suggest a cap per map region, determined by the PM staff. How will it benefit the server? Prices such as the below wont appear anymore and people wont sell their properties like they're Tinsel Tower Apartments (like below). Link to comment
Timzii Posted December 12, 2021 Share Posted December 12, 2021 Punishing all players with a cap again because of a few players which like to highly overprice their property won't help anything. It's ok as it is right now, just report these people to PM instead. Link to comment

Mahitto Posted December 12, 2021 Share Posted December 12, 2021 I'm against this. We can't compare real-life property prices to ours because the demand is caused by wildly different reasons. In real life, there's a huge demand of places in safe areas with good schools, in good neighborhoods, with all utilities, parks, access to stuff, good neighbors, which obviously drives the price of such plases up. In-game, we have way more people interested in buying the exact opposite, which obviously increases their demand and price. It's extremely realistic for our own ecosystem, as a matter of fact. The only way to achieve a realistic virtual market is to let it be completely driven by our own virtual supply and demand. Link to comment
Juicebox. Posted December 12, 2021 Share Posted December 12, 2021 Why? Looking at that exact thread people are clowning him. Terrible example because nobody even wants it for that price anyway. Just move on and let him think his little ass room is worth 300k Link to comment
matt Posted December 12, 2021 Share Posted December 12, 2021 Nervous and PM have said that at this point, it will stay this way. Place are allowed to cap their own prices and shouldn't be surprised if they over-do it in certain cases and nobody wants to purchase it. Link to comment

Completely disagree because we can't have a realistic market. Our own virtual supply and demand dictates that our market is anything but realistic. We don't have any external factors that would dictate a realistic housing market (World events, job growth / loss, stock markets, Federal Reserve controlling interest rates, etc). People spending their monopoly money without a care in the world for anything else (risk, future expenses, etc.) is not a housing market. It's a commodities market, at best. Anyways, there's really nothing that can be done about it at this point anyways. No sense in trying now. Edited December 12, 2021 by 99 Link to comment
