Housing
"Welcome to my castle!"
"But this is only a small tower?"
One of the most unique and exciting parts of UO is owning a house. To date, no other MMO has implemented a system quite like it. The ability to place, decorate, and customize your own home is one of the greatest aspects of this game.
Building your house
There are two methods to get a house: build or buy.
Firstly you will need to purchase a House Placement Tool from an NPC Architect. They are reasonably low cost at only 627 gold.
All players will start with 2 house slots for free, there are currently no limits on how many houses you can own. More can be purchased from the Eventine Dollar Store located at Town Center.
Once you have saved up enough gold to place your house or plot you will simply need to find a location. Here on UO Eventine you will find there are many plot sizes available on multiple facets, the only exceptions being Faraan, Ilshenar and T2A where houses cannot be placed.
Buying
Some players may decide to buy a house from another player instead of placing or building their own. This can be done easily once you have located a home and decided on a price with the seller, you both meet at the house. The seller opens the house sign and begins the transaction process. A trade window opens and on the seller's side, a glacial colored deed is shown with the house information. You then place the agreed upon gold/items in. Both parties then need to accept.
Housing types
There are two types of housing: pre-built and custom.
Pre-Built
In the beginning, housing only came in premade styles. These houses cost slightly more than their dirt plot counter-parts. Original houses came first, Renaissance houses were adding during the Renaissance expansion.

Custom
Using the House Placement Tool you can also purchase house plots which are fully customizable and come in a variety of sizes ranging from 7x7 to 18x18.
Larger customizable plots of 24x24 and 30x30 can also be purchased from the Eventine Dollar Store.
You will also notice some much larger plots as we offer a house joining service for a small fee, these are explained in our Staff Services section.
Here on UO Eventine players whose accounts are considered as inactive (that have not logged into their accounts within a six month period) will be dropped. We run frequent house drop events which are very popular with players.
