A couple of quick questions, is there a limit to the amount of land you can own and if not how is the tier payment calculated for anything over a region. Also is an estate just an openspace island?

Thanks in advance

Hi,

No there is no limit. Anything over one region of mainland is charged at $97.50 per half sim afterward. Private island/estates can only be bought in full regions and the tier there is $295. You must own a full region private island/estate before being able to buy an open space sim.

There's no limit. If you own more than a full region's worth of mainland, the tier cost is calculated at $97.50 US per half region. See https://support.secondlife.com/ics/support/default.asp?deptID=4417&task=knowledge&questionID=5198

An estate is not the same as an openspace island. The word "estate" refers to a collection of one or more private islands. The cost of a private island is calculated differently from costs on the mainland.

An openspace island is a specific type of private island. It costs less, has a lower prim limit, and doesn't get the same share of CPU that a regular private island would get.
