Trading in Apartments/Properties

Players need to press up on the D-pad to access the internet on their in-game phones. Go to the Dynasty8 web page, where all real estate transactions are made. Search in the low-end property tabs for a cheap apartment or garage. Click to purchase it.

The game will then allow the player to pick a slot to place the new property.Placing it on a property will replace it and give the player a trade-in value. This will be the difference between the old property and the new one that the player will receive.Purchasing a more expensive apartmentwill not net the player any trade-in money.
