Once the Teen Idol Quest has been complete you unlock the sim sign (located next to the estate agency in the town) you need to get it to level 3 by finding the resources to upgrade it.
THERE IS NO TIME LIMIT FOR THIS
What resources do you need?
- TV Show Cameos
- Radio Interviews
- Magazine Photoshoots
How many of each piece do you need for each level?
- Level 0= 5 of each
- Level 1= 10 of each
- Level 2= 15 of each
How do you find the pieces?
Each time you find all 3 notes for the drum kit, guitar and microphone you get a piece of each
Drumkit Notes= 1 TV Show Cameo
Guitar Notes= 1 Radio Interview
Microphone Notes= 1 Magazine Photoshoot
Make sure you restart the collection once you have found them all to find them again!
You can also get them randomly when you do actions but be prepared to spend LP or it will take you a long time to complete the sim sign without them to speed things up!
How many LPs will it cost if you decide to speed up?
- Level 0= 42 LP
- Level 1= 90 LP
- Level 2= 135 LP
My teens are ready to age but they haven’t completed the sign, what do I do?
Just start a new teen on this hobby and keep going to complete the sign. You can have up to 5 sims complete the hobby at the same time once it has been completed for the first time.
Once the sim sign is at level 3 it will be lit up, as shown below:
And then you can build the teen mansion on a premium residence, the first one free! After that they cost simoleons, the price varies depending on how many other houses you have but it is cheaper to build the teen mansion, than to buy an empty plot to build on (as you are paying for each floor)
What does the teen mansion look like?





THE FIRST TEEN MANSION IS FREE
If you didn’t unlock the volleyball net on the Its All Going Swimmingly Quest then don’t worry you get one in this house!
Personally I really like this house, I think it is well worth all those LPs I spent trying to complete the sign!
NOTE: teens cannot live in this house on their own even if they are the teen idol unless an adult lives there and they ask the teen to move in then you can move the adult out.
Anyone can live in this house, they don’t have to be the teen idol. It is just a normal house.
Want teens to live alone in this house? Watch this video to find out how to do that:
Thanks for reading!

Teen idol mansion and haunted house shows the dog’s house already. So does that mean we will get a pet when we buy that house?
No it doesn’t, you have to build the pet store and buy a dog and place it in one of those houses so it can use the dogs house, you don’t get a dog when you build the house.
My teen has read all the magazines and watched the cat video. there is no blackboard at the park so she can’t finish her quest.
Try leaving the park and going back there.
Hi 🙂 Does doing the hobby gain you resources or not anymore? Because I’ve been doing the hobby again ang again but it seems like I’m not gaining anything
Yes, but you need to complete a whole row to get one resource
Is the sim sign a timed thing, like the teen idol quest is? Because if it is, I guess I won’t get the teen idol mansion then. I hate timed hobbies, I think it’s a waste of time to get your sim to finish a hobby in a week (or less)!
I love your site, I’ve been using this site to prepare me for what’s ahead on the quests, and it’s helped me a lot.
Thank you!
No, the sim sign isn’t timed, you can take as long as you want to complete it
Thanks and I’m glad it has helped!
I am level 0 on the sign still because everytime my teen idol plays the keyboard, they get basic melody. Every. Single. Time.
I have been trying for weeks to get my teen to play a DIFFERENT note on the piano, but she plays the same every time and it’s so annoying!! Is this maybe a glitch or something because i have completed all the other notes in a normal amount of time! I have 0 LPs so I can’t speed up or anything. 😭
How annoying!
This post may help you earn some LPs: https://thegirlwhogames.wordpress.com/2015/01/14/the-sims-freeplay-how-do-i-have-so-many-lps/ then you can use them to do the lucky spin and hopefully get the other two in that row!
Hey. How can I gain resources easily without using lps?
The only thing you can do is complete the hobby, there isn’t really any easier way without using LPs.
This post may help if you need to earn LPs: https://thegirlwhogames.wordpress.com/2015/01/14/the-sims-freeplay-how-do-i-have-so-many-lps/
so now it’s 2016, if you upgrade the sims sign town to level 3, do you need lp? is the mansion still free? also this is really nothing has to do with Sims Mansion but if your sims parents are divorced and her mom moved into another house can a teen also moved to her mothers house? Btw i so love your blog, xx!
Yes this post is still correct, the mansion is free and you can use LPs to upgrade quicker but you don’t need LPs if you complete the teen idol hobby
Yes, the mum and teen need to be nice to each other until they get the option to ask to move in, the mum will then need to ask the teen to move in. Thanks!
Do you have to reset the hobby to get another resource after completing it each time? Or can you just keep repeating the same instrument over and over?
You have to reset the hobby otherwise you will not get another resource.
Is the 3rd level of the sign the max? Like once I’ve earned the teen mansion is there any reason to continue gaining these resources?
Level 3 is the maximum, you will still earn the resources but they cannot be used for anything.
K, thank you.
How do I reset the hobby?
This post shows you how to do that: https://thegirlwhogames.wordpress.com/2014/08/23/the-sims-freeplay-restarting-a-hobby-collection/
I want to age up my Teen idol, however I have not completed the Sim Town sign. Does this mean I will lose all my progress and have to start again?
No it doesn’t, just make a new teen the teen idol.
Does the car come with the house?
Yes it does.
Ok thanks. I love your blog. It’s really helpful 🙂
What is the size of all plot? For egzample standart residence is 18×18, premium is 18×36. Is it same as premium plot or bigger?
This is on a premium plot so it is 18×36, there are only two kinds, premium and standard.
I upgraded my sims town sign to level 3, then Teen idol mansion has disappeared from home builder bar. How can I go on?
Try restarting your device, hopefully it will reappear so you can build it, you can only build it on a premium residence.
The same thing has happened to me. I really want to make this house!
Hi! I just exchanged my 10 keys for a mystery box and I got 3 radio interviews with it. Since I am not yet doing the teen idol quest, where do they go?
I hope i don’t lose them in Sim limbo!
Don’t worry they will be available when you need them!
Hi! When your teen idol became adult, is that possible to have another teen idol appear? Because having teen idol that able to do several special animations are cool.
Yes, you can have a new teen idol when the previous one becomes an adult.
Thank you! 🙂
Thanks for your awesome site.
Can I have multiple teens playing instruments to get resources faster? Or can only the teen idol play?
Thanks!
No, only one teen can play the instruments and be teen idol.
Ok thanks
Is this still accurate? I have two teens repeatedly completing the hobby together to finish the notes of each instrument and they’re both earning the resources.
After the quest has been completed 5 sims can complete this hobby at the same time, the hobby post is up to date with this information: https://thegirlwhogames.blog/2014/09/05/the-sims-freeplay-hobbies-teen-idol/
I keep getting only the magazine shoot with random actions, how can i get the others aside from the instruments?
The only other way is to use LPs to buy the remaining resources you need, this post may help if you want to earn some LPs: https://thegirlwhogames.wordpress.com/2015/01/14/the-sims-freeplay-how-do-i-have-so-many-lps/
Hi, does it make any difference to appearance of the plot if I build teen idol on mystery island? I’m sure I’ve seen somewhere that houses with ‘special’ gardend walls etc don’t get them if they are built on the island.
I’m pretty sure that the teen mansion stays the same if you build it on the mysterious island
Where’s the teen idol mansion now? I can’t find it after the last upgrade 😭
I still have the teen idol so hopefully it will reappear for you soon!
Hi weightlessmagic, I still have further quests to achieve before I do the Teen Idol Quest, but I was wondering, how much money does the Teen Idol Mansion cost if you have already bought four houses?
Thank you, and your website is really helpful! Thanks to you I was able to finish my quests much faster with the shortcuts! Thank you!

Like it says in the post the first teen mansion is free.
You’re welcome!
The teen mansion is not free for me. It is 2,700,000!! And I just used LP to get it because you said it’s free, only to not have enough money!
Sorry but I have already built the teen mansion so I couldn’t update this post as I didn’t know it had changed as no one told me. Now I know the post has been updated, sorry but it isn’t my fault if the developers decide to change something!
Hi! Have to say I love your blog. It’s my go to for quests or any other SFP info that I need. Thank you for your dedication to helping others. I just wanted to inform you that the first teen idol mansion is free! I just finished upgrading the sign and put the mansion on a plot to be built. So as of March 7,2017, it IS free! Again thank you so much for all the help you provide.
Thank you so much for letting me know! 🙂
Just wanted to say that I played around with the game and I got a ton of the resources for the sign when I used the teen idol to interact with other teens (using the special interactions for teen idols). In about an hour I got 3 magazine photo shoots and 3 radio interviews. Couldn’t seem to get any cameos, but still only having to spend LPs on one resource is better than three. If you’re trying to build the sign it’s at least worth trying, definitely sped up the process for me!
Let’s say you have enough of some resources to upgrade the sign to level 3, but way less of another. Does it work to not complete the entire hoppy, and instead just repeatedly complete one line of instrument achievements (so resetting the hobby after finishing the drum row only to get that resource)?
That would be great if you could do that but unfortunately you cannot reset a hobby without completing all the rows.
Thank you. Your blog is really helpful!!!!(:
You’re welcome! 🙂
Can a teen move another teen into mansion or only adults can do that
Only adults can, if you want just teens living together then check out my video on how to do that: https://youtu.be/SoqoJQReuYM
I saw your video on how to make 2 teens live in 1 house. Similarly can I have 1 teen and 1 pre teen living in the same house?
It wouldn’t work with preteens as you don’t get the ask to move in interaction with them unfortunately.
I have upgraded the sign to level 3 and been notifying I’ve unlocked the mansion. However when I go to my lot to build there is no mansion available. Can u help?
Are you looking on the premium residence, these are the bigger ones as you won’t find this house on a standard house lot.
I still get several resources through random actions from The Famous Sim Town Sign Quest. The magazine shoot, TV show cameo, and the radio interview. I wonder if it will ever progress past level 3? Or if I can see how many of those resources I have collected, it has to be quite a few. Thanks! Love your blog.❤️
It doesn’t increase anymore once you reach level 3 and you cannot see how many you have.
Thanks!
I have been working on Getting my Sim
Sign to level 2 and it takes so long! I really want that mansion. I’m worried I’ll have to spend/waste LPs to get a repeat item. I only have 3 teens and one Teen Idol. I did the quest to age the Sims. Can I age up my preteens with out spending LPs on a birthday cake? They don’t have any life dreams. I have many other things to work on in the game. I only have one Senior and one baby with personality.
There is no rush with things like that, I completed the sim sign on my main game yesterday after playing for over 4 years! Just take your time, its only a game after all! You can age up sims without using a birthday cake but you have to wait for them to reach the end of that life stage, so to do this quicker have your preteens completing long 1 day tasks and they will soon be ready to age.
I only need 12 more slates to get the idol mansion. I have 3/15 now. It costs 35 lps to upgrade it. If I keep doing the hobby and gets for example 10/15 slates, will the amout of lp to complete the sign decrease or it will always be 35 lps?
The amount of LP will decrease with each one you collect.
Hi, I’ve reach the third level of the famous simtown sign but I still got the resources. Does the rest of the resources still usefull even the famous simtown sign already reached the third level?
They might be useful for trading resources on the pirate ship to build the ancient goddess monument: https://thegirlwhogames.blog/2014/10/08/the-sims-freeplay-pirate-ship-trading/
I am not 100% sure if they do actually appear on the pirate ship though, sorry about that!
How can I have different amount of the resources before building the first level? In my understanding I got every time one from all 3 resources, or not? (I have 3, 4 and 1) weird 🙂
Sometimes you find them at random like the resources used to build the monuments on the mysterious island
aha! that makes sense.
when i build the teen idol mansion, can i then age my teen idol into an adult or do they have to stay a teen?
You can age them if you want to, they don’t have to stay as a teenager but you also don’t have to age them.
