Players can purchase plots of land, also known as real estate, from other players using emeralds. There are two types of real estate: homes and shops. It is generally recommended to buy a home before you buy a shop, as homes provide significant value to new players.
Buying homes allows players to purchase protected land in settlements for emeralds with the option of then or the home to other players for emeralds. Players can flip homes for a profit by buying a home, fixing it up, and then reselling it for more emeralds than they bought it for.
Players can find homes to buy using the /explore homes forsale command. Use this command multiple times to explore all homes for sale on the server. Players can use the /home buy command to purchase a home. If there are no homes for sale then creating a new settlement is always an option.
Buying shops allows players to purchase protected land in settlements for emeralds with the option of then or the shop to other players for emeralds. Players can flip shops for a profit by buying a shop, fixing it up, and then reselling it for more emeralds than they bought it for.
Players can find shops to buy using the /explore shop forsale command. Use this command multiple times to explore all shops for sale on the server. Players can use the /shop buy command to purchase a shop. If there are no shops for sale then you always have the option of creating a new settlement, as settlement owners can create both homes and shops in their settlements.
