About this mod

Have you ever wanted to buy your home, or several, with the only use of septims? Now you can!
This mod adds several new homes, made by me.

AE/SSE Version here!
THIS VERSION IS NO LONGER SUPPORTED / UPDATED, I moved to SSE.

I have always loved Skyrim's houses.
One of my priorities, while playing, was to purchase all of them.
Does the dragonborn actually need them, tho? Well, who knows, but it is handy to have more places to rest during the travels!

However, why can't we just... buy them like a normal citizen? Why can't we have more options?
On a sidenote, why are there so few houses for sale?
I mean, the existing population has their own, alright, but what if someone comes from outside and wishes to move in? Where do they go then?

This mod aims to add more player homes that can be bought via a Real Estate Agent.
Her name is Jaen Gold-Heart and she has just recently moved in Skyrim with her family, Hedvar Gold-Heart (her husband) and Lilyn Gold-Heart (their daughter). Using the moneys she had saved and doing some favors around for the Jarls, she bought small pieces of land to build modest houses. Now she is willing to sell them.
She is also a misc seller.

** Note: this mod doesn't affect vanilla houses. You still have to go through the normal process to get those.
** Note 2: this mod doesn't let you buy other NPCs houses.

This mod features some number of new player homes made by me, old ones and new ones, family-friendly and solo-friendly. You just have to choose!
Each house has this kind of name: xxxx Family yyyy // xxxx Simple yyyy. "Family" stands for houses Hearthfire Multiple Adoption compatible, while "Simple" are for those who just play solo and can't be blessed by that mod.

+ ALL of the houses come with (almost?) all the crafting stations.
+ ALL of the houses have beds and chests.
+ ALL of the houses are nav-meshed and lighted properly (...I hope XD).
+ FAMILY homes have from 2 up to 6 children's beds: read info to know which has how many.
+ Jaen and the Gold-Heart family are just outside of Whiterun's Stables. They all have custom dialogue, sadly not voiced acted yet: turn on your subtitles! 
+ Prices vary depending on your speech skills, like any normal barter. You can't sell the keys, so make sure you get what you want.

Don't expect castles. The houses are pretty simple, vanilla, and cosy. 
Yes, they will be in your game, all of them, even if you want just one: do you expect other houses to vanish in real life after you've bought your own?
Just kidding XD, but it felt right this way, makes Skyrim look more natural to me.

** FEATURED PLAYER HOMES. **

Please check the pictures to see the interior of the buildings.
Note that the actual look of the mod inside your game may vary a bit depending on what textures/enbs/lights mod you use!


- Whiterun's Simple Shack: A very small shack located right next to the Gold-Heart's home. Base cost 500 septims. Can't be blessed.
- Riverwood's Simple Home: A small farmhouse located on a hill next to Riverwood's Bridge. Base cost 1000 septims. Can't be blessed.
- Lakeview's Simple Cottage: A small farmhouse located next to Half-Moon Mill on the lakeshore. Base cost 1000 septims. Can't be blessed.
- Markarth's Family Home: A small dwemer farm located next to Salvius' Farm in Markarth. Base cost 1500 septims. Can be blessed, 2 childs' beds.
- Windhelm's Family Nest: A medium farmhouse located near Windhelm's Stables. Base cost 1500 septims. Can be blessed, 2 childs' beds.
- Shor's Family Retreat: A medium cottage located near Shor's Watchtower. Base cost 2500 septims. Can be blessed, 6 childs' beds.

** COMPATIBILITY **

This mod is not compatible only with other that adds anything in the current houses locations, as far as I know. Which means that my standalone houses are NOT compatible with this one. Let me know if you find any other issue. If you want to be safe, try running the mod once with a new game, so you can decide if you want to keep it or not. And to be even more safe, BACK UP YOUR SAVE FILE(s).
Except for some navmeshes, I did NOT touch anything vanilla. All the actors, forms, etc, are duplicated and renamed. So it should be fine with almost anything.

** CREDITS **

This mod uses one script that was not made by me, to allow the keys to be bought, and for which I thank Darkfox127 and his youtube videos. They helped me SO much.
Actually I should thank a lot of people out there for their video or text tutorials. Bethesda, for example.
Also a big - big, BIG - thank you to all of those that have inspired and supported me through my other mod pages.
