Land Deed

A Land Deed is used to claim a piece of land and can be purchased from the marketplace by minting a Land Deed NFT. Using a land deed to claim land will give you either a 12x12, 16x16, 20x20, 24x24, 28x28, 32x32, or 64x64 plot of land depending on the NFT purchased.

You are not able to place a land deed if you have a free account, you must have a premium subscription.

## Claiming land

Double clicking a land deed will prompt players to claim a piece of land as player's plot. Players cannot claim a piece of land which is

* Too close to another plot
* Inside non-housing zones, for example too close to a city or a landmark. You'll receive the error message "Land cannot be claimed".
* Blocked by objects, such as trees. This doesn't apply to 28x28, 32x32 and 64x64 land plots

## Mailbox

After claiming a piece of land players can control their plot from the wooden mailbox.

### Relinquish Control

If a player wishes to move home or does not like their current spot, players may use this function to remove their plot. When relinquishing, a plot cannot have any houses or locked down items present. Players are asked to clean up before they may relinquish control. Upon relinquishing, the plot's land deed will be returned to the player's inventory for future use.

This function is useful if players want to test plot placement but do not wish to commit to the current location.

### Transfer Ownership (Selling NFT)

Selecting this option brings up a menu. This works like any other trade. Once a trade is finalized the new owner will now be in possession of the plot, any house built on it, and all items. Also note that if a house is on the property, it will reset the security settings. In order to link it to the new account, the player must login and add the Land Plot NFT to their account.

### Taxes

Housing plots are taxed every month; the value of a plot's taxes varies by plot size. Players are expected to pay their housing taxes from their plot's mailbox or via a banker. Players may deposit money (minimum of 1 Gold at a time) into their mailbox to automatically pay for tax. Furthermore, any player that is a property co-owner may donate money into a mailbox to help pay for that housing plot's taxes. Completing your Premium Subscription tasks for 10 days will waive the tax for the month.

If a housing plot's taxes are not paid within time, a lien will be placed on the lot and the owner will have to pay the lien before selling the land plot (NFT). If they sell or transfer the lot with lean attached, the new owner is liable for the taxes. There will be a (LEIN) Tag posted on the NFT in the marketplace with the balance due.

### Decoration

Players can use the plot's mailbox to lock down items on their plot. When locked down, items cannot be taken by another player. This doesn't mean that any containers such as chests, pouches, or lockboxes are secure. Though players will not be able to steal the container itself, any and all contents are free to other players unless the contents are put for sale. To secure a container, players must construct a house and place their belongings inside.

Furthermore, any furniture that comes Packed such as a Wooden Table or a Gate will be automatically locked down.

When using the decorate function, found on the plot's mailbox, players can move around locked down items, alter their elevation and facing direction.

If players wish to release an item from lockdown, use the Release/Pack function. This will allow items on the ground to be picked up by anyone. If the furniture item is supposed to be Packed however, as mentioned above, the furniture item will be placed in the owner's inventory instead.

### Lockdowns & Vendor Items

Plots have a maximum number of lockdowns based on the the size of the plot. They also have a maximum number of items that can be up for sale in the open world (items within containers that are for sale do not count towards the total).

The below table is a representation of the number of lockdowns and max vendor items at various sizes of plot.

 16x16
 20x20
 24x24
 28x28

## Housing

*See:* Housing

After placing a plot, players can build several houses on a single plot. To construct a house, a player must first purchase a housing blueprint from a carpenter's shop or from an architect. Players may then activate the blueprint and then place a house foundation on their housing plot. After placing a house foundation, players will then be asked to supply the foundation with a large quantity of Wooden Boards, Iron, and Bricks to complete the house. Any player may provide materials towards the house by Right Clicking the foundation and clicking add Resource. Then target the resource in your backpack.
