Homes prices, what do you think?

Dragonnord

Now that we know the prices of houses in Homestead, what do you think of them? Do you find them cheap, OK or expensive? Or maybe "way too..."?

If you haven't seen them yet, apartments costs between 11k and 13k, small homes between 40k and 74k, medium homes between 190k and 335k, large homes between 760k and 1.3 million and manors around 3.7 million.

What is in the more expensive homes that isn't in the cheaper?

Plus there's a free room at the inn, of course. Also, you can pay in gold or crowns. The latter is actually important for those who want an expensive house but aren't sitting on a trading fortune or intending to use it as a guild house. The price may be prohibitive on both methods, but at least the options are there - and not in a crate !

Let the gold farming begin
3.78m gold for a manor and there's 3 of them (all 3 needed for an achievement that comes with a title). I feel poor now

Those prices seem perfect tbh. Accessible for anyone in the small/medium category a bit of work for the larger/manor category.

I have to say, the way they have tied in crafting seems very in depth at first glance. If you are into housing I think you are going to have a great time with this update.

I think the prices are fair and a good gold sink.

I thought the manors would cost up to 5 million, and I didn't expect different houses within the same tier to have different prices, which is nice.

But maybe I'm biased because there is only one house that I want right now and I can afford it.

More space to place stuff in the larger homes and there may be restrictions on what you can place in the smaller ones. We'll need to get in and see if those restrictions are huge or not.

I'm in a position where I saved just enough for the manor home so it works for me. I'm also totally aware that 3mil + is not a number that the majority of players will get easily so it puts those manor homes out of reach for a lot of players. My hope is that they don't turn to 3rd party gold sites to get the funds necessary and that a crown store option that would be comparable is included.

these look Ok to me but i have to see the real differences between them and the practical nature of them.

if it ends up being just cosmetic fluff then not that interested.

off hand given my chars typical goldish status i could reasonably expect to buy a single medium house for up to 300k (for my chars as a whole or possibly buy an apartment for every character individually if thats possible.

i do kind of like the idea of a more robust "shared pad" and each having independent apartments if thats functional.

the prices look quite reasonable.... not like it's hard to make gold if you put your mind to it.

I think the mansions are far too expensive. I was expecting them to be two million at most. I've been saving for months and only have about 2.7 million saved. I think they are trying to exploit us to get crown houses.

Mmm I guess I won't be able to buy 2 different houses for now (can't decide the race), but I guess it's fine, like others said, better be a slow progression. I'm terrible at grinding gold, I wish pledges could be more profitable in that regard because it's what I spend my time on these days.

The price for mansions is insane. The most gold Ive ever had is 200k. And thats from just normal questing, I havnt gone gold farming. I dont get how people walk around with millions of gold. I can sure kiss manor goodbye. But who knows maybe I will be happy with a medium house.

disintegr8

Nearly 4 mil for a Manor is a lot of money for most players, I expect the begging to increase a bit.

Instead of people wanting 3k to respec skills or 10k for a horse, it'll be "I need 100k or a million so I can buy a house?".

Gandrhulf_Harbard

Having just returned to ESO to give One Tamriel a try (and finding that 95% of my gripes about the game have been resolved over the last year or so) I subbed for 3 months, so got a few Crowns. Was going to get the Elk Mount but to me that is way overpriced. So I may use the Crowns for a homestead.

I'm not in a guild so don't have tons of gold, in fact I barely have 250k. But as I am enjoying ESO:OT more than I have enjoyed any MMORPG in ages I imagine I'll be around for a while to earn some more.

All The Best

In the patch notes it says that you can set a friend as decorator. I don't think I'll ever be able to buy a manor, but maybe I can buy a large house with a friend, that would be fun.

JD2013

The houses are very reasonable, and I expected the manors etc to cost more.

My 1,200,000 (currently) should buy me a nice house in Tamriel.

menedhyn

I'm only interested in the smaller homes, so the prices are fine for me.

I am nearing 6 mil in gold but do not envisage blowing it on the larger houses, just like I still ride around on my original 10k brown horse - you do not get rich by spending your gold

SlayerSyrena

Apartments: 11k-13k
Small Homes: 40k-73k
Medium Homes: 190k-325k
Large Homes: 760k - 1,295,000 gold
MANORS: 3,775,000 - 3, 785,000 gold!!! X___X;

The Manor prices are a HUGE disappointment, imo. I hope they see reason and lower them a bit before it hits live. ;__;

Oreyn_Bearclaw

I think they are about what I expected. I could see the "Manors" being more along the line of guild halls. I would certainly pitch in if my guild wanted to buy one. As for me, I am buying the Dunmer house on launch day. Haha.

akl77

The price hits the spot, just right ESO.
Time for sell down of my legendary stockings, I'll give my all for the manors.

Julianos

too expansive i will go play sims

UrQuan

Prices seem pretty damn reasonable to me. There's something for everyone's price range. I'm going to have to save up if I want a manor, but that's OK.

Julianos

Manors should be 1.2 million in TES lore or in real life you can buy a country or pocket oblivion for 3.7 million gold its just ridiclious.

Shimmer

I think they are very reasonable.

Manor is not reasonable im not going dump my all hard earned money into a barbie house.

Annalyse

I'm not sure why people are so upset about the manor prices; they are realistic when you put them in line with the other sizes/prices. I'm sure large houses are more than adequate for anyone wanting a large space. Mansions should definitely be much harder to attain - I was honestly expecting 5 mil so I'm pleased with this.

Its honestly not that hard to make money...go farm nirncrux for 1-2 hours a day for a couple days and you will have enough.

Lol ty for advice but i would rather delete eso instead of farming stuff i dont need chores i need fun.

Danikat

I've only got 5,000 gold at the moment, I think the most I've ever had at once is 20,000 and I think the prices are fine.

Yes the 3 most expensive houses in the entire game cost a huge amount of money, but that's not surprising. It's not like those 3 are your only options so if you think it's too much to spend on a house or you can't afford it or whatever else guess what? You don't have to!

You can stick with the free inn rooms, or buy an apartment for less than the cost of a horse. You only have to spend more if you want the bigger houses and you only have to spend 3 million + if you want the biggest ones in the entire game.

Well dont complain if you are not willing to put in the work for something. You cant expect to get something for free and expect money to just magically appear in your inventory by not working for it.
