I've already had four offers to buy my first land, and I haven't even moved in yet. The neighborhood has a bit of a junkyard feel - with prims and assorted freebies littering the landscape at various altitudes and FOR SALE signs and searchlights beckoning passersby.

Here's an aerial shot of my property (the non-junkyardy side) and some adjacent homes. You can get information about any piece of land, and display the property lines using About Land under the World menu.



The first thing that I needed to do was adjust the terrain. This was very simple - I right-clicked on the ground and selected Edit Terrain. This highlights your property in bright green and changes the cursor to a little tractor that lets you raise/lower/smooth sections of the landscape.



I started simple and just flattened the plot. I'm planning to build my own structure, but until I have more time I'll be living in a very nice prefab freebie home that I found on slexchange.



All you have to do is unpack the box and place it on your land (I did need to reposition the door and patio railing). It takes up the entire footprint of my lot, but it has a working fireplace, a lockable door, and windows that can be transparent, semi-transparent, or opaque.



I need to modify the land a bit more to make it easier to enter, but I'm quite pleased with my temporary living quarters. Feel free to stop by if you want to check it out.
