Property and Apartment
Quick answer: You can buy your first property, the Wiener Apartments (200,000 Fons), at Tycoon Level 5. Properties unlock Anomaly Furniture with permanent perks, let you invite characters to visit, and raise your Collection Value for extra Stamina and Annulith. Buy Eden Apartments (1,000,000 Fons, level 7) next, and fit in the later properties when your Fons income is stable.
Properties are more than decoration in City Tycoon. Several Tycoon Level objectives depend on them, and each home comes with Anomaly Furniture that can speed up weekly activities or strengthen your team. This page covers what each property offers and which one to buy first.
Why Buy Property?
- Tycoon objectives: buying and upgrading homes is part of several level requirements. See Tycoon Level Guide.
- Anomaly Furniture: each home includes special furniture with passive effects, from City Tycoon shortcuts to combat bonuses.
- Inviting characters: you can have characters visit your home and interact with them.
- More Stamina and Annulith: buying furniture raises your Collection Value, and certain milestones permanently increase your maximum Stamina and can reward Annulith.

How to Buy a Property
- Reach the Tycoon Level the property needs.
- Go to a Leon Estate Group property agency in Bridge Crossings (the yellow building icons).
- Talk to the agent and choose the property.
- Pay the Fons.
Wiener Apartments is added to your properties immediately, and it counts toward your level 6 objectives.
Anomaly Furniture
Anomaly Furniture comes with each property, and you can place it once you own the home. Wiener has 7 pieces and Eden has 9. Notable effects:
| Furniture | Property | Effect |
|---|---|---|
| Blind Mammon | Wiener | Opens the Realm of Greed, a weekly Fons activity. See How to Earn Fons Fast. |
| Old Mailbox | Eden | Adds the Special City Delivery, an extra delivery slot that needs no Stamina |
| Hamster Ball | Eden | Can give free Modules |
| Gilded Butler (Silver Edge Butler) | Eden | Lets you fast-clear Anomaly Zones once per week |
| Dream Weaver's Knot | Eden | Raises your Character Pixel cap |
| Forgotten Helmet | Eden | Reduces vehicle durability loss during races |
| Nameless Blade | Skyview Halls | Raises deployed characters' ATK |
| Empty Shell | Skyview Halls | Raises deployed characters' DEF |
| Old Skateboard | Skyview Halls | Reduces the Stamina cost of Dash and Dodge |
Anomaly Furniture effects don't stack across properties. Before you buy a new home, check that it adds furniture you don't already have active in another one.
Comfort and Collection
Two numbers measure your furniture, and Tycoon Level objectives use both.
- House Comfort: how furnished your home is. Placing any furniture raises it, and level objectives ask for set totals (for example, 20 at level 8 and 175 at level 23).
- House Collection: your Collection Value, which grows as you buy furniture from stores. Certain milestones permanently raise your maximum Stamina and can reward Annulith. Check your progress in the My Collection screen, which you reach through the Smart Control inside your property.
Furniture costs Fons, which you earn back from hobbies, Anomaly Commissions, and exploring. Even furniture you buy only for decoration counts toward Collection Value.
Inviting Characters
- Own the character and raise their Bond Level to 4.
- Open your apartment and tap the character icon at the top of the screen.
- Choose the character you want to move in.
Wiener Apartments allows one guest at a time and Eden allows two. Once a character is there, you can interact with them, and placing furniture tied to that character unlocks extra interactions. For the level 6 objective, inviting a character and activating one piece of Anomaly Furniture are both required.
Which Property to Buy First
- Wiener Apartments at level 5. It unlocks the property system and your first Anomaly Furniture, and the level 6 objective needs it.
- Eden Apartments at level 7. It's the best early buy because of the Gilded Butler, the Old Mailbox, and Dream Weaver's Knot.
- Skyview Halls at level 9 for the combat bonuses (ATK, DEF, and less Stamina used when moving).
- Golden Capital and Fenglin Villa when your Fons income is stable, mainly for more invitation capacity and to meet the property-count objectives.
Don't stop at Wiener. It's the cheapest, but its furniture is the weakest. If you're strapped for Fons early on, finish your upgrade materials and Cafe first, and push for Eden once your income is steady.
Common Mistakes
- Buying a property whose furniture you already have active. Effects don't stack.
- Forgetting the Bond Level 4 requirement when you try to invite someone.
- Skipping furniture. It raises both Comfort and Collection, and several level objectives depend on them.
- Spending all your Fons on a property when you still need your Cafe and upgrade materials.
- Forgetting the level 6 tasks. You need to buy Wiener, invite a character, and activate one Anomaly Furniture.
