COST MODIFIERS: Materials used in the construction of the house will affect the cost. While the basic price covers the cost for a house built in the basic building materials for the location, within reason, if you want a more exotic building material that will affect the price. The more exotic, expensive and rare the building items, the higher the cost will be. Cost modifiers will range from x 0.25 to 2. Houses built in remote areas will cost twice the normal amount. This modifier is applied after all other costs and considerations are taken into account. This does not apply to items and pets. If the approval and building process becomes too painful, there is a risk that the house will attract a Hassle Levy. This levy will range between 50-100k and will be applied after the Immortal in charge of player houses has consulted with another Immortal to ensure that it is being reasonably applied.
