    Today I was at work trying to talk two friends into coming back to UO (randomly enough, some people I work with played back in the day), and they were perplexed when I explained the one-house-per-character rule. I know it helps create scarcity and promote a healthy economy, but that's not what I'm questioning.

    So, those of you holding an extreme number of houses, what do you do with them all?

    Stare at them.


    I own 1 fort 2 keeps left and a few grandfathered placement properties (they couldn’t be placed there again if I deeded up the house.)

    The keeps are amazing locations and I’d rather sell them to close friends. Since most of my friends have better properties I’m sitting on them for now.

    The grandfathered locations are great for vendors and newer player loaners. I use them for just that but rarely decorate them.



    Hope this helps!

    I dance and party all night and drink some cherry wine.

    They should make it one house per account!

    Personally, I'd love that, but then the housing market would be nothing compared to what it is now. And it might make people leave, and we're a bit thin these days as it is.

    I would be OK with a "one massive house per account" rule.

    Just off the top of my head I can think of two people with 3 forts and several other houses

    Yeah 1 house per character is lame. Even 2 house per account would suffice better than the current state

    I have:

    A vendor house (Yew Moongate)
    A Fort (Main residence, all my characters live out of this)
    A patio (CUB house)
    A Large brick (CUB house)
    An Ocllo house (that's for sale)

    If CUB came out I would sell those 2 houses for deed as I would have no need for them.

    I reckon a LOT of spots would become available if/when CUB comes out. Specifically large spots, I can think of 10-15 Large Patios floor to ceiling with CUB off the top of my head, easily 20-30 smaller/medium houses like villas, log cabins and such also floor to ceiling with CUB.


    Ideally I'd just have my fort and the vendor house. The more houses I have had the more stressful I find it remembering to refresh them.

    I can see CUB houses going after that comes out, I can't wait for that! I'm down to 3 for the same reasons, ease of maintenance and I'm not selling. =P

    I think I missed a memo... what’s a CUB house? I did some forum searches but didn’t find anything.

    I was trying to think of all the dudes I roll with, I don't know a single one of them with houses in the double digits. The guy I know with the most is 7, BUT like One said, they are all specific houses for specific uses.

    A house filled with pouches containing 124 items that will (when CUB is released) be exchangeable for copper coins under the Clean Up Britannia program.

    Lesser wanted magic weapons, armour, and non player crafted items.

    You realize items older than CUB release will be valued at near 0%, right?
