It would be difficult to top Jeff's living arrangement's list for Wessex posted today. I can't and won't, but it did give me the excuse to rework and post the wee subsystem I have for real estate in and around the Marklinko and Ostrovo cantons in the HC.

Like most luxury items in the campaign, PCs get 1 exp per 2 suns spent on buying a place. Players can also choose to custom build (or expand an existing structure) according to these rules. The price for land will vary wildly. Land ownership of arable land is difficult without engaging into the complicated dance of social relations.

Type	Cost (in gp/suns)	#Housed	Availability
Rural hut	100	2	2
Menstruation hut	80	1	5
Rural longhouse	800	10	4
Meadhall, faux-Hyperborean	3000	20	18
Farmstead, semi-fortified	2200	8	15
Slum hovel	180	2	2
Slum flat	320	6	4
Tower, onion-domed	3000	5	15
Townhouse, whitewashed	2600	10	9
Townhouse, stuccoed	4000	15	15
Manse, creepy and decrepit	15000	25	18
Manse, swanky	20000	30	20

The actual cost is variable and the GM will adjust to fit campaign circumstances (a rush of refugees might drive up the price or what) . It is assumed that this price represents the best deal that can be found in a week's search.

Roll d20 (modified by CHA)

1-2	200%
3-7	150%
8-15	list price
16-19	75%
20	50%

The number housed represents relatively comfort conditions. Twice as many can be housed in cramped, unpleasant, bitch-at-your-companions-out-of-annoyance conditions.

Availability is rolled on a d20 (add levels of thief or mountebank as a modifier) to equal or beat the target number. Again this may be adjusted due to campaign circumstances.
