Imagine you're barely scraping by with 5 people in a one bedroom, and james comes in and quadruples your lot bills 🤣

[@savannahcarlon7033]

This is why I play with the SNB mod! You can adjust the property tax percentage. It's also a really cool mod to have because you can have separate checking accounts and savings accounts as well as transfer money to and from other sims.

[@kennaj924]

James crackw me up bwcause he goes crazy with one small detail (the kitchen) and then is flabbergasted on where his budget went. 😂

[@clairerockwell4165]

He's that surprised Pikachu meme every time 😂

[@angelickaveach]

James language..."the kids will love it" equals "that's ugly"

[@KianaeJ]

[@revannia]

This could be a nice mini series - the one you did for Vlad's 20 or so descendants could be the 1st episode Definitely would like to see more renovations like this. Looking forward to the updated packs ratings vid!

[@iamsongforsomeone994]

He also renovated a house for that one guy who kept adopting kids.

[@revannia]

@@iamsongforsomeone994 Yeah I think there may be one or 2 others - Vlad just stuck out lol

[@PhatMissy]

Poor woman was saving up for her kid's college and you spend it all. 🤦🏽‍♀️🤣

[@Frenchaboo]

I wish James got a habit of putting even the crappiest small rugs in the budget house bedrooms, they fill up the space and make the room look complete even if there's nothing actually in it.

[@alisont410]

Love this format of building for families that need a better space. I’d like to see what their skills/likes are and apply that to the build too though.

[@thundercookie3214]

I really like these renovations of homes for world NPCs. The renovation for Vlad's house (and his 16 children) was awesome, too, and I would love to see you tackle more of these houses. :)

[@sansa357]

This family was made by a member, and James shoved them into a house just to give them somewhere to live, not caring at the moment that they didn't fit, 😂

[@OhCheeerie]

"I'm not looking to completely gut the house". Completely guts the house 🤣

[@LenaDieters11]

Loved it. I get that this time money was the challenge, would be awesome to see you look at their traits/style and adjust the interior accordingly!

[@maisiewoods6938]

Would love to see when you do renovations like this - if the budget is really low or you run out of money etc - if you would play the family for like a week to earn more money for the renovation rather than sticking to a small budget. Just think that would be really fun and you’d get to know the family more and what they would like in their house

[@basilolivialee]

so excited to see the results of the packs this year!

[@cambronjohnson1845]

Me too!! I expect Growing Together and Horse Ranch to do really well

[@annoar9776]

​@@cambronjohnson1845especially growing together!

[@marieduran6286]

Lilsimsie found out that if you delete the stairs underneath, you will get your money back. That way you can use the space underneath for bookcases, plants, and maybe a Roomba. They are going to need one.

[@angelickaveach]

Yeah. You get money for the walls you sell. You have to playtest whatever you place because some usable items your sim can't reach and other items will block the stairs.

[@TeruteruBozusama]

​@@angelickaveachoh no, there's a sock underneath the stairs! That's dangerous! I can't walk up the stairs now! But I can't pick it up either, the stairs are in the way!

I sold it all

[@emmasweeney7952]

This series is a mix of Dream Home Decorator and Build Challenges. You could do the whole Sims world through this series. Heck yes!

[@lisita15]

Thanks James! I love watching you build. I would love to see more of these types of videos!

[@madunog]

I'm loving these kind of videos! The evolution of your contents range and quality is so amazing to see. I'm so excited to see you playing more with your community's creations ❤

[@sali61]

Love this... I've been doing the same thing using my CC. The funny thing was Johnny Zest having 3 kids & 2 women living in his 1 bed trailer 😅

[@missdukette2168]

I really like the outside and the floor plan works well ! Sure... the decor can use some tweaking but I'd download this off the gallery and play in it

[@pixzichix]

This should become a mini series, designing new homes for the follower families.

[@candiecoatedsims2947]

Love surveys. It's always exciting seeing the results.

[@LarrietDarling]

Oh I'm gonna love the Extreme Home Makeover series 😂

[@CharXP]

You could've actually downsized the upper floor by letting the boys share a room and the girls share a room with the use of bunk beds or the single beds. It would've made it a 3-4 bedroom house, instead of 5 with maybe an office space or playroom. Then you could've made space for 2 additional bathrooms, also so that the kids could share and then create an on suite for the mom. You'd also have a lot more money to work with to furnish things. Bigger isn't always better. On a different note, I can't seem to access the link to rate the Sims 4 packs. Is there an alternate link available by any chance?

[@narxinba4916]

I love that this is basically just dream home decorator, but without doing it through the career. 😂

[@vnsssls]

I love all your build videos. Thanks for making more room for this family!

[@astroRobotical]

Filling my form and putting 10 for everything in Cottage Living because it is my dream pack and as a brit I can now build my perfect countryside life

[@randomrandom3128]

Just sent in my form and I’m excited to see how the community has ranked the packs in the upcoming video :D

[@marcellamaragno]

I love this idea for videos 🥰 If you made the houses accordingly to the Sims interests/likes and dislikes would be 10/10

[@cantimagine770]

Gasp! Another Survey!

[@lottekelder4770]

'Good thing that the house is pretty specious, so we got loads of umhmm... space.'

[@lionmcmuffin4751]

love these vids! you could even give them some jobs etc to set them off, and see what their traits are to maybe personalise the house more

[@joshow926]

Next time you do one of these could you leave them with a little momey left over? Not sure how unplayed households work, but this Mama would definitely need some funds. 😅 Love this idea, though!

[@markabele8794]

I like the idea of renovating existing homes that came with the packs. It looks like fun.

[@kkdoesgaming6113]

*puts 2/3 of budget into the kitchen* "I think they've got a great kitchen!"

[@syrasha_]

I love these kinds of build videos!

[@ms3delle]

This type of buildings evolved in a pretty dense environment of medieval castles where space was quite limited and it is awkward to see them roaming free along the streets. In the middle of spacious lawns but still so tight

[@colbyreader]

We should do a fundraiser so this can happen irl too. It would be so cool to help provide homes for people

[@Emthe30something]

Love when the vids that come in a fix a families house. More please :)

[@noodlespleaseandthanks]

puts the games table in the living room corner while the bedrooms are barren

[@rudeminnesotan]

In the best way, nicest way possible. I keep falling asleeping during these videos. Your voice is apparently so soothing I just clonk out 😴

[@joshow926]

Sometimes I watch a let's play if I need a nap and rewatch it when I'm not tired. But most of the time I watch to chill and I love James's vids for their entertainment value!

[@crinkle-babies]

and now they have 96 simoleons to survive😂

[@Ang7.8]

“They need a home” 😅 sounds so sad.

[@Rosebud_official]

It’s so interesting how some packs are amazing for the stuff and not the gameplay and some are fun for gameplay and not meh on the stuff. Looking forward to seeing that video

[@kristen6885]

This is one of my favorite homes to play in. Great fixes! You’ve given me some excellent ideas. The closest in the kitchen never made sense. Maybe they were thinking “Harry Potter” 😂

[@EmberEnder]

James consistently bringing out amazing content is a blessing, one of the strongest creators on the platform (if not The Stronkest)

[@jfostreams2095]

kinda wish the house would match the family a little more. the description said boho sims. look at the kids traits for the toys etc

[@clairesendby8814]

So nice! I would love to see more renovations like this 🤩

[@Tasha3309]

If you close off that one sq tile and open it up to the hallway, you could have a hall closet. Or put a stacked washer/drier there.

[@drradska8107]

Finally the sofa, TV and coffee table are not like on opposite sides of the room. See, coffee tables serve a purpose and should be closer to the sofa.

[@christinamoxon]

I really enjoyed this. It's fun to renovate for new sim families in the worlds. I'd love to see more of these. Shame the dogs don't have any toys. Hope the family aren't attached to their shoes...

in the one single spot in the corridor upstairs should go like a built-in-(book) shelf

Survey done ✔️ And this isn't a bad house

[@ShadoeLandman]

I’ve also been having my entire stair railing disappear, even when there aren’t any walls or fencing by the stairs. I think I’ll have to repair the game, but that could take a loooong time, so I’ve been procrastinating.

unrelated to the build, but I was devastated when I couldn't give my first rat pack a 0, james. so sad.

[@zoeyrosato2093]

[@CrystalClear5617]

Alright survey done. If gameplay is broken like dine out or wedding stories I just voted somewhere between 0-3 because I didn't vote on the idea of the gameplay but how it is in game right now

All the packs are awesome..the only problem is my storage space🤣

[@fewaldow]

Survey done ☑ and I hope this becomes a series, I'll like to see more!

[@damyenne8739]

I have started doing this in my game! I let neighborhood stories go crazy while I play my family, then eventually go through and find the family of 8 living in a studio and make it work for them, or the lady with a horse in an apartment and move her to a farm 🤷🏻‍♀️ fun little challenge

[@TheKadie53]

Loved this and would love to see more renovations for these sims!

[@prisle]

don't build open concept style for European style homes simmers CHALLENGE difficulty: impossible

[@marieduran6286]

Yes, I like these kinds of videos, especially what you did to Vlad's house. On that note, the only thing I would have done differently was to use fewer corbels and use the wallpaper with the wood and brick in it, (still in the Tudor style, the one you originally used, but with the wood in a darker color, and then place one corbel on every one of the dark wood 'columns' on the wallpaper. Or you could have upsized the corbels.

[@Vindrael]

James, these kind renovation would be funnier if you made another save and fix the mess made by neighborhood stories don't you think? And if i may, i think you could play the new save for 1 year (spring to spring again and so on) without changing the NS settings then fix the messiest or any family you like

[@foranzo1582]

I wish you went a bit further with this and checked what the household members like and dislike. An extreme upgrade for the townies 😆

[@FyreKatz]

I started doing that survey of yours and realised that I can't remember the build/buy, cas, or world for any of the packs and so I decided I didn't deserve an opinion! Will be keen to see the results though...

[@lealarsen2017]

really nice home i hope you do this for the other familys too. it is a nice challenge

[@Sisss777]

I like this kind of video, suggestion: randomly spin for a budget and renovate homes for the follower made family’s.

[@katiewilson794]

It would be cool if for the next survey you could add another option if you don't own the pack which is 'not interested in this pack' and 'want to buy' or something I would be interested to see which are the packs no one cares for owning (other than my first pet stuff)
