    The reason I posted this pic is house flipping is a terrible practice and this lame ass game is glorifying it

      Have you played the games? The vast majority of it is just home decorating. It’s more of a house cleaning/ decorating sim than anything else.

      It also doesn’t glorify selling houses. It idolizes giving someone the best home for their lifestyle.

      I hate landlords and corporations owning single-family homes, but house flipper isn’t either of those things.

      I am curious why it is considered such a terrible practice? A lot of people don’t want to spend time and effort renovating an old property (nor do they have the knowledge or experience to do it well) so there is a market for old but already “fixed up” houses and there are people that make a living doing just that.
