I’m one of those people who gets hot under the collar from real estate – and I’m pretty sure it’s an obsession built from endless hours spent crafting nek-level sims houses. Has this done me any favours as I’ve gotten older? Nope. Quite the opposite, tbh.

You see, drooling over properties that you’ll never own SUCKS. Like, a lot.

But there’s a cure. If my lust for extreme cribs ever gets overwhelming, I go hell for leather in The Sims 4 and recreate the place that’s making me devo. While it doesn’t fix this deep-rooted psychological issue, it’s enough of a relief to get through the day.

If you think this approach is better than copping a huge bill from a therapist, then check out the below 18 sims houses for some damn-fine inspo. You’ll be gagging to play the game and keep your need to own a mansion at bay in no time.
