Once you complete the extreme home takeover quest you will be able to submit your house to the sims freeplay for a chance for all other players to be able to build it! This post will explain how to submit a house.
This is the house I will be submitting:
The first thing you need to do is send a sim to work as a real estate agent so the sign post appears at the front of your house, click on it and the option to submit the house will appear
This pop up will then appear:
Read the terms of service then click yes to submit your creation
This pop up will then appear once your house has been submitted:
And that is it! All you can do now is wait and see if your house has been chosen!
Can you submit a penthouse?Yes you will find the sign near the elevator!
Your house will not be deleted when you submit it and you can submit as many houses as you want
These houses will be available in the architect homes tab (when you build a new house)
You do not receive a notification or a reward if your house is chosen, you just have to keep checking the architect tab
This video shows me submitting one of my houses:
How often do the architect houses change?They usually change every 2 weeks
Why does it look like items are missing from the architect homes? If an item is from a simchase or event the makers remove that item from the template so the only way you can get these items is by completing the event
LEVEL UNLOCKS: 11 UNLOCKS: romantic furniture and submit houses feature TIME LIMIT: 2 days PRIZE: hot tub
This quest unlocks the ability to submit your houses for a chance for them to be added to the architect houses tab so other players can build them! Find the realtor in the park to begin this quest. If you complete in the time limit you will unlock the hot tub, you can still complete this quest once the time is up to unlock the romantic furniture and the ability to submit your houses but you won’t get the hot tub
You cannot complete this quest at the same time as any other discovery quest
Times may vary depending on the star rating an item has and whether a sim is inspired or not.
Ask Lucius about hubbub- 1 minute [inspired: 57 secs]
Go to work at the real estate (click on the pulsing suitcase of a sim who is a real estate agent) NOTE: keep them at work so you can see the sign for the next task
Read a real estate sign- 6 hours 30 minutes [inspired: 6 hrs 11 mins] (the sign will appear by the mailbox once a sim has gone to work as a real estate agent)
Discuss home takeover with a sim- 1 minute [inspired: 57 secs] (select the interaction between two sims)
Search for well groomed sim on simbook- 9 hours (computer)
Extend or build a room
Have a sim take a selfie- 10 seconds [inspired: 9 secs] (click on currently selected sim)
Post selfie on Lucius’s Sim Book- 6 hours
Become incensed- 2 minutes [inspired: 1 min 54 secs]
Check fine print on a sign- 12 hours 30 minutes [inspired: 11 hrs 53 mins] (the sign will appear by the mailbox once a sim has gone to work as a real estate agent again)
Buy an item from the home store
Submit house via sign (you don’t even need to submit at this stage, just click on the sign then click the green arrow to complete the task, if you don’t do it now you can submit a house later- make sure a sim is at work as a real estate agent first so you can see the sign)
Where can it be found? In the outdoor furniture section
Cost? First one is free then cost S65,000
Is the prize worth it? This quest is really easy to complete in the time limit, as long as you have a sim to go to work as a real estate agent when you need to click on the sign! The hot tub is fairly expensive but I do think it is worth completing in time to unlock it as the first one is free!
If you don’t complete in the time limit you will still receive the romantic beds, seats and fairy lights:
Beds can be found in the bedroom section and cost S17,500 each
Fairy lights can be found in the lighting section and cost S21,000
Romantic seats can be found in the outdoor furniture section and cost S15,00 each

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS ABOUT THIS QUEST
please read before asking
How do I start this discovery quest?
Find the real estate developer in the park to start this quest
Why can’t I do this discovery quest yet?
You cannot do more than one discovery quest at the same time, if you are currently on another one (the list can be found here) you will not be able to do this one until that one is completed
Can I do discovery quests at the same time as a main quest?
Yes you can
Do I have to do this quest?
If you don’t start the quest you don’t have to do it at all but if you have already started it you need to complete it before you can move on to the next quest
I haven’t started this quest yet, will it still be available when I want to do it?
Yes it will be, you can choose to start it whenever you like
I can’t see the sign to read it, why?
You need to send your sim to work as a real estate agent to see the sign in front of your houses
I can’t find Lucius to become incensed, where is he?
He should appear at the house you are currently at, if not try looking around simtown for him
What do I get if I complete this quest in the time limit?
The hot tub
Why can I only get one sim using the hot tub at a time?
If the hot tub is against a wall or has items around it they will not be able to access all sides to get in
Why didn’t I get a free hot tub?
The hot tub prize isn’t free, it will cost you S65,000
What happens if I don’t complete in the time limit, can I still finish this quest?
Yes you have to finish it to unlock the option to submit your houses and romantic furniture before you can move onto the next quest
I didn’t complete in the time limit, can I restart the quest?
No, you cannot redo quests
Can I still get the prize if I don’t complete in the time limit?
No, the only way to get the limited time prizes is by completing the quest in the time limit
I don’t like this quest! Can I just skip it?
No, you have to complete this quest before you can move onto the next one now that you have started it, if you don’t start it you don’t have to do it
Some times are slightly different on my game, why is this?
Times may vary depending on the star rating of the item you are using, as the higher star rating an item has the quicker you will complete a goal
Some times are really off/ different goals show for me, why is this?
This will be because the quest has been updated recently, I try my best to keep these posts up to date but it is difficult as I cannot redo every quest each time the game is updated. If you notice any changes please let me know so I can update the post
This is my review of each of the new hairstyles you can unlock from the boutique hair event. There are 12 different colours of each hairstyle apart from the Harajuku hairstyles which come in 14 colours
You can find all the styles you have unlocked from a wardrobe or create a sim for adult females
I will be rating the hairstyles from 9 to 1 with 1 being my favourite! Although I like all of them so this was quite difficult!
9. Wavy Fringe– This is my least favourite but only because I really don’t like how the fringe is cut, I like the rest of the style!
8. Harajuku Bows– I know the title of this hairstyle would need changing but I just don’t like how many bows there are on this one, the hair itself is really nice especially in the multi colours, it could just do with a few less bows!
7. Side Part– not a big fan of hair all pushed to one side but that is just my opinion
6. Harajuku Pigtails– from the front I love this one but I think it would look better if it was just pigtails and didn’t have the loose hair at the back
5. Simply Straight– this one is very similar to the hair unlocked on the ringlet of fire quest, really like it but some of the ones in this event are more interesting!
4. Wavy– simple but classic! I think it looks great in the natural colours
3. Loose Ponytail– I really like curly ponytails, I just don’t think some of the hair bands go with all the colours, for example the orange one with the blue hair would look better in the blue or black seen on some of the other colours
2. Parted Fringe– I just love this one! It didn’t make 1st place only because I love the other one more!
1. Loose Side Plait– LOVE this one so much! It was the first one I unlocked and I could have just stopped after completing that first set!
Which one is your favourite and have you managed to unlock them all?
The competition center is a good way to earn extra LP or simoleons, if you haven’t built it yet you can find out where it is in simtown from the town map
The higher level you are in a career or hobby the more chance you have of winning first prize at the competition center.
When you click on the competition center (as shown in the picture below) it will appear with a competition (I had the archery hobby) it tells you how much you will get for each placing (which is always the same, regardless of the competition you get):
1st place- 3LP
2nd place- 1LP
3rd place- S1000 and 1000XPs
4th place- S500 and 500XPs
Then you can select a sim- always go for the sim with the highest level in that hobby/career (it will tell you what level your sims are at)
For example: Zack is level 6 in archery so I would definitely use him over Hayley who has never done archery before (level 0/6)
NOTE: your sim must not be busy for them to partake in a competition, they will appear greyed out if they are busy.
Once you have selected your sim they will be busy competing for 24 hours, once the time is up you will need to go back to the competition center to see where they were placed.
If your sim is level 6 then they should come first but they don’t always!
At 9am everyday a new competition becomes available if your sim isn’t partaking in one already so keep checking back until you find one that you want to do!
NOTE: If you changed a sims career or hobby, for example if they did cooking and then you changed them to fishing their skill level for cooking will now be 0 so entering a cooking competition will earn them fourth place.
Is it worth it? I rarely use the competition center if I am being completely honest, it is a good way to make a few extra LP but it does mean your sim cannot do anything else for a whole day.
Which careers appear at the competition center?
Art (Artist Career)
Acting (Filmmaker Career)
Athletics (Athlete Career)

High School Student (teen required)
Music (Musician Career)

This is going to be a very quick post as there isn’t much to say about the pet salon but I have been asked about it.
If you don’t know where to find it it is near the competition center (the location can be found on my town map post)
What can you find in the pet salon?
If you complete the A Puppy Odyssey quest in the time limit you unlock outfits for your kittens and puppies that can be brought from the pet salon
The main reason for it though is to buy collars for your adult cats and dogs so they can go to the Pet Park (which can be built once you complete the life dreams and legacies quest) to complete the Cat Show, Dog Agility and Dog Obedience hobbies!
You can also buy Christmas antlers and hats for your adult cats and dogs!
How do you buy items?
The pet salon works the same way as the sims salon, you select the pet you want then you can choose the collar, hat, headwear or outfit for them to wear and click the green tick in the corner to buy
Dog– collars, hats and headwear
Cat– collars, hats and headwear
Puppy– outfits (if you complete the A Puppy Odyssey quest in the time limit)
Kitten– outfits (if you complete the A Puppy Odyssey quest in the time limit)
How do I remove an item? Click the back arrow which is the first box on the options
If I replace an item with another one, would the first be stored? No, you would have to buy it again
How do I send a pet to the pet park once they are wearing a collar? Click on the pet and select, send to pet park
