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
Total= 267 LPs
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?
Front of the house with 3 starGround Floor2nd Floor3rd FloorSwimming Pool
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.

Blue footprints appear when your sim cannot access an item you want them to use, you need to either rotate the item or move an item that has been placed in front of it so they can use it.

If you already have a sim at the wizards cottage you will get this message, use the simtracker to go to the sim who is already there instead of using the crystal ball

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
