Housing

Housing & Real Estate covers Kintara's player-owned residences. Each residence comes with a key that grants access and can be walked into and customized with furniture purchased from Bartholomew at the furniture showroom.

Keys are the most sought after, rare, and expensive items in all of Kintara. At launch they were purchasable directly with Gold, but are now exclusively obtained through the Marketplace or player-to-player trading.

Key types

There are three tiers of keys, each unlocking different residence types:

Key	Unlocks
Bronze Key	Flat · Trailer
Silver Key	Apartment · House
Gold Key	Penthouse · Mansion

Customization

Every residence can be walked into and decorated with furniture. Furniture is sold by Bartholomew at the furniture showroom on a rotating basis. '

Obtaining a residence

Keys were originally purchasable with Gold at game launch. They are no longer available through any in-game source and can only be obtained by:

• Buying from another player on the Marketplace
• Direct player-to-player trading

Due to their limited supply and high demand, keys are consistently among the most expensive items listed on the Marketplace.

Placeable structures

In addition to housing, players can drop small functional objects in the world.
