- Disposition matters: Most counts and vendors won’t sell unless their Disposition is 50–70+, so raise it with persuasion or bribery.
- Upgrades vary: Most homes can be customized with decor, containers, beds, and even extra perks (like a maid or pirate crew).
- Own them all: There’s no limit to how many houses you can buy, so go full real estate mogul if you want.
