Buildings are the backbone of your empire in CityVerse Tycoon. Acquiring and trading buildings strategically can significantly impact your success. Here’s a detailed guide on how to buy and sell buildings using different payment methods.

Nobody starts at the top. Just as every great journey begins with a single step, every self-made real estate tycoon begins the journey to their first building purchase (and the many that follow) with their own humble first steps. In CityVerse Tycoon, your journey begins as a Renter in a Landlord’s building. You and nine other renters need to upgrade that building, and pay rent in the form of a percentage of your earnings. Congrats on taking your first steps in the CityVerse!

**Leveling up to Owner status = Double Bonus time!**

Now that you have a taste for ownership and its many benefits, it’s time to start thinking about taking another giant leap forward. As an Owner, you’re just a few steps from becoming a **Landlord**, with buildings full of rent-paying tenants!
