The Basegame Starter
Today, I set myself a challenge. To build a fully functional, fully furnished starter home, for under 16,500 simoleans, using basegame only content. It was tough, and I needed to jiggle the floorplan around a lot, but eventually, I came up with this! I'm actually super proud of it; it's hard to build a house for under 16,500 and still have it fully furnished!
The floorplan downstairs is open plan. As you step into the house, the first thing you'll see is the living area. The kitchen is tucked away in a little nook to the right hand side, and the stairs leading to the second floor are right next to the living area.
Upstairs, you have a small landing, which leads to a full sized bathroom; no washrooms or showers here! You then some to the small single bedroom, just right for a sim starting out in life!
Just because it's a starter home, doesn't mean I've scrimped on the entertainment! You have a TV and bookcase in the living room, a landline phone, and even a stereo in the kitchen! Yes, your sim really does have everything he or she will need to both have fun, and maintain cheaper living costs!

Install Instructions
1. Click the file listed on the Files tab to download the file to your computer.
2. Extract the zip, rar, or 7z file.
2. Select the .sims3pack file you got from extracting.
3. Cut and paste it into your Documents\Electronic Arts\The Sims 3\Downloads folder. If you do not have this folder yet, it is recommended that you open the game and then close it again so that this folder will be automatically created. Then you can place the .sims3pack into your Downloads folder.
5. Load the game's Launcher, and click on the Downloads tab. Select the house icon, find the lot in the list, and tick the box next to it. Then press the Install button below the list.
6. Wait for the installer to load, and it will install the lot to the game. You will get a message letting you know when it's done.
7. Run the game, and find your lot in Edit Town, in the premade lots bin.
Extracting from RAR, ZIP, or 7z: You will need a special program for this. For Windows, we recommend 7-Zip and for Mac OSX, we recommend Keka. Both are free and safe to use.

About Me
I love creating things for the Sims 3! The things I do most are houses and sometimes sims, so those are the two things I'll be focusing on uploading here! Feel free to use my creations however you want, just don't upload them or claim them as your own. ;-)
