Condition multiplier
Wrecked, Basic Remodel, and Fully Remodeled apply 0.55×, 0.82×, and 1.00× to value.
The Game
From wreck to riches.
Buy a wrecked property, plan the renovation, hire a crew, get it built, and sell it for a profit. Do it well and you move up to bigger, pricier cities.
01 · Acquisition
Buy a property to flip
New listings appear on the city map each day, shown in their wrecked state so you can size up the opportunity first.
- Every listing shows bedrooms, bathrooms, floors, size, and both its current and purchase price.
- Buy with cash, or tap your remaining borrowing capacity if funds are short.
- A property's condition — Wrecked, Basic Remodel, or Fully Remodeled — sets its value multiplier.

02 · The Market
Location sets the price
Cities set the overall market level. Districts, rated 1 to 5, set how valuable a location is within that city.
District rating
Each district is rated 1 to 5, from lower-value up to the most expensive part of town.
Size & rooms
House size plus bedroom, bathroom, and half-bath counts feed directly into value.
Recalculated value
After construction, value is recalculated from every factor combined.
03 · Planning
Plan the renovation before you build
The Remodel Planner walks you through style, floor plan, renovation level, extras, and crew before construction starts.
- Pick a design style — Modern, Scandinavian, Industrial, Luxury, Mid-Century, or Coastal.
- Keep the existing floor plan or choose one of two alternative layouts.
- Assign a worker to every required role before you can complete the plan.

04 · Scope
Choose Basic or Full Remodel
Basic Remodel covers the core trades; Full Remodel adds a complete upgrade package once you've hired an Interior Designer.
Basic Remodel
Carpenter, Electrician, Plumber, Drywaller, and Painter — with at least two carpenters required.
- Covers the fundamental construction and finishing trades
- Cheaper and faster than a Full Remodel
- No added roof, HVAC, windows, or landscaping
- A solid fit when a property doesn't need the full package
Full Remodel
Adds New Roof, HVAC, Energy-Efficient Windows, Landscaping, and an Interior Designer on top of the core trades.
- Uses ten workers across every required role
- Unlocked only once you've hired an Interior Designer
- The Interior Designer becomes available after your second remodel
- Highest cost, but the most complete finished package
05 · Layout
Change the floor plan
The planner can keep the current layout, or swap in an alternative that changes size and room count.
- Alternative plans can add floor area, bedrooms, bathrooms, or half-baths.
- A bigger or reconfigured layout means more demolition and construction work.
- Weigh the added value against the added renovation cost before you commit.

06 · Crew
Hire the crew that gets it done
Post a job ad, wait a day for applicants, then compare skill level against daily rate before you hire.
Carpenter
Core to every remodel — handles demolition and carpentry work.
Electrician
Required on every remodel; a second electrician is needed for a Solar Panel System.
Plumber
Handles plumbing on every Basic or Full Remodel.
Interior Designer
Unlocks Full Remodel and handles finishing; available after your second remodel.
07 · Construction
Watch the build through four phases
Demolition, Construction, Finishing, and Finalization each need their own trades, and a worker can only be on one job at a time.
- Worker productivity — 0.60× to 1.60× — sets how fast each phase moves.
- Up to two projects can run at once, but a shared worker can only help one at a time.
- Random events can delay a project, so build in some budget slack.

08 · Budget
Extras, loans, and interest
Optional extras add cost and sometimes need specialist staff. Loans and interest shape how much risk you're carrying.
From an EV Charger to a full Solar Panel System, each with its own reference cost.
Loans can cover up to 70% of your properties' current value.
Cash sales close in 3 days; bank-financed sales take 7 and can still fall through.
Interest accrues daily and is charged against your loan or cash balance.
09 · Payoff
Stage it, list it, sell it
Once construction closes, set a staging budget and a listing price, then work through the offers that come in.
- Listing price can move about ±20% around the property's current value.
- Offers show buyer type, financing method, and price before you accept or decline.
- Accepted offers enter escrow, and a successful escrow adds the proceeds to your cash.
