I have been tinkering with the purchase of a house and have seen lots of chat about the different sizes and different floor plans and such but one thing I have asked for from many architects, and never gotten, was a chance to se what the houses look like.


I am NOT a power gamer, and don't get in more than 8-10 hours a wek and don't want to have to spend that time trying to figure out the different houses.


My suggestion to all architects is this, have available to you at all times, waypoints for houses near where you do most of your business for each type of house that you are able to make. That way, if someone starts asking you about a large corellian house, you can say "let me send you a waypoint to one near by so you can go check it out".


Take a tip from real life, model homes make sales.

If you've been tinkering with the idea of buying a house why don't you take some time and just run around and find them. I had a guy last night that wanted me to discribe a guild hall to him. What am I supposed to say? It's bigger than a bread box and has more rooms than a large house.

As I mentioned in my post, I don't play a lot, and don't what what time I do get to play to be spent trying to figure out which houses are which.


What are you supposed to say to him? Well, how about this; "I'll email you a waypoint to one near by soyou can check it out" It will take you like 10 seconds to tell him and email it, how much time will that save you just in terms of nor having to try and explain things?


If it's too much trouble to store a few waypoints, when your business is making and selling houses, don't be surprised when the casual gamer takes his business elsewhere.

It is too much trouble really. As you'd have to store waypoints for each house type close to each city you frequent at the time of asking. Its not really that hard for you to visit www.swgarchitect.com and see the house pictures for yourself instead of asking an architect to store dozens of waypoints. We struggle as it is with space in our datapad what with the all the schematics we store.

maybe becauce you soo strapped and dont want to do it yourself i should carry 1 of each deed of everytype and place them so you can look and then redeed them...While your at it ask the staff od SWG to bring spawns to you cause you dont have time to find them..Why is your time more valued than mine is?If i have a dollar and you have 100 does that mean my dollar is worht more?

These other responces filled in nicely where I forgot to mention. Why should I have to run around and find the houses when you can just as easily do it yourself. Just because I'm an architect doesn't mean I'm not a casual gamer myself. It's like you want the world on a silver plater, just for you. Besides houses move all the time. It only costs 800 credits to move a small one. Visiting the above mentioned site will also save you some time.
