Buying Land in SL?

I want to buy a full sized sim to rent condos and such to residents. If I buy a homestead sim does that really mean i can only have 20 avatars on my sim at once. If so is there any way for me to buy a mainland or private estate from a real estate agency without having to pay USD tiers a month??? I'm totally confused here Help Please!!!

Yes, they really mean that.

Yes you can, if you pay with $L instead of USD.


Good luck with your project.

Why don't want you to pay USD tier? Often it's the cheapest option, I have a sim whereby it's cheaper for me to pay in Linden dollars, but that's because of VAT, the base cost is still more than the USD$295, but the total is less than USD$295 + 17.5% VAT and it's worth it so the greedy feckers in Brussels don't get money for their gravy train, but those sort of deals are hard to find.

Fixed that for you.

You're renting, hon. Especially if you don't want to pay in USD to Linden Lab.

I get the sense that there is a lot more that you don't know about the land business. I would search Desmond's recent thread about 12 things a land baron won't normally tell you as a start.
