Would you like to live and work at the same place? Thanks to this Mod created by Little Ms Sam you can run a business from home!
Live in Business
This Mod adds Lot Traits to the Game which let you run Businesses at Home
General Information
Youβll find New Options on Doors, Arches & Gates when one of the Lot Traits is used to Open and Close your Business. (More Info in the Lot Trait Details)
Guests that spawn are based on the NPCs that get spawned on the actual Lot. The Behaviour of those are the same as those on the original Community Lot.
Make sure to lock other Doors if you donβt want your Guests to go into your Home etc! You may have a fence around my Lot with a Gate which is locked for all others when you open your Business. You also have the Business in a secured Area on your Lot so they can go only in there.
This will spawn NPCs on your Home Lot. Depending on your Household Size, Lot Size, Pets, Objects on the Lot, Neighborhood etc pp. it could cause Lags if your PC canβt handle everything!
Technically you could use several Lot Traits of this on one Lot. Like a Cafe at Day and Club at Night. But it's not recommended to open more than one Business at the same Time.

Live in Vet ClinicΒ (Cats & Dogs EP needed)Β Β
You can now open your Vet Clinic at Home. The Vet Clinic works a bit different then the normal ingame one. To treat Patients you can begin the Exam via the ExamTable (βBegin Examβ¦β) Option. No Greeting needed here. Keep an Eye on the number of patients so you can close the Vet Clinic to be able to treat them all. The current Patients on the Lot will still stay (for a while). After opening the Vet Clinic it may take a little for the first Patients & Owner to spawn. Youβll get a Notification when a Patient spawn to know which Patient should be examed next.
Youβll earn 500 - 1.000$ per Patient (250 - 500$ with the less Income Add-On).
You can hire/(and fire) Employees via the new Pie MenuΒ βLive in Businessβ - Hire/Fireβ¦ on Doors. Employees can be Teens and up but be aware if you choose Teens or a Sim that already has a Job it can be that sometimes theyβll not arrive at work or will arrive later. If you use Teens as Employees they almost always show up even during school hours.
The Employees will spawn after opening the Vet Clinic (may take a little if you have more than one hired) but will not leave on their own when you close the Vet Clinic. They will stay until you dismiss them via the Management - Dismiss Interaction on the Employee themself. Each Employee costs 250$ per Day. Employees cannot do everything. On default theyβll clean, repair & fill up Pet Bowls. You can order them to craft Treats though which you can then put into the Vet Machine to sell to Pet Owners. On default they will not wear Uniforms but you can use the Outfit Add-On listed below to let them wear one of four possible Uniform Colors. If you donβt want to use the LIB Vet Clinic anymore make sure to fire your Employees.
Youβll find a new Purchase Option under Order on Computers where you can buy Vet ExamTable & Surgery Station Medicine. They will be delivered via mail.
Known Issues:Β Sometimes Pets get off the ExamTable and you have to get them on it again to continue the Exam (happens on Vet Venues as well). Depending on several Reasons (other mods or lot situations etc) it can happen that the connection between Pet & Pet Owner breaks or that the Owner leaves before the Exam is finished and therefore your Sim will not be able to give them the Bill.
Optional Add-Ons
Vet Clinic More Patients (LIB Vet Clinic Add-On)
If you feel like you get not enough Patients you can use this for a higher chance of more Patients spawning.
Vet Clinic Outfit (LIB Vet Clinic Add-On)
You can choose one out of four possible Outfits for your Employees to wear: Blue Multi, Brown Multi, Plum Multi or Mint Multi. Only choose & Install one!
Live in Store
With this Lot Trait Customers (1-3 per hrs) will spawn when the Live in Store is open. Set Items for Sell so Customers can view and buy them if they like what they see. Some Customers will buy one Item, some will continue shopping and some will buy nothing at all.
This Store should work without the Get to Work DLC installed since it is build from scratch. But it also means it works completley different. It is more like a βSelf-Service Storeβ without Employees and without the need to interact with Customers. You can only sell specific Objects that are collectible or craftable.
New Pie Menu on Doors βLive in Storeβ
Within this Pie Menu you find 4 Options to set the Mark-Up for your Store. Default is 0% but you can set it to 25%, 50%, 75% or 100%. Be aware the higher the Mark-Up the lower the Chance Customer will buy something.
To get more Customers (2-6 per hrs) into your Store you can book a Short Term or Long Term Web Campaign in Simcity Online. Short Term costs 25$ per Day and lasts 2 Days. Long Term lasts 7 Days and only costs the Price for 6 Days (150$). Advertising your Store will also increase the Will to buy something!
What can be sold in your Live in Store?
Craftables:
- Canvas
Sell your own Paintings in your own Gallery. - Woodworks
You can sell all Woodworks you can create via the Woodworking Table including Objects made with my More Woodworks Mod. Some Interactions are disabled for self created Instruments so your Sims shouldnβt use them on their own when they are set for Sale. - Self written Books
Sell your Books directly to Customers. You will find a new βCopy Bookβ Interaction on your Books which letβs you copy Books a bit cheaper and puts them into your Inventory without your Sim doing the Interaction. Make sure to keep the Original and only sell the Copies! Some Interactions like Read, Put Away are disabled for Books that are set for Sale so you donβt have to worry your Sims or Maids putting them away over and over again. - Frabricated Items

- Fish
Fish can be sold via Aquariums. Put the Fish into a Aquarium and βSet Fish for Sellβ via the Interaction on Aquariums. Customers will buy the Fish directly out of the Aquarium. The Retail Display is also available to sell Fish from.
- HarvestablesΒ (compatible with CC Plants that have the Func βGardeningSkillPlantβ added)
You can sell Harvestables directly from the Bush or Tree. If βSet Harvestables for Saleβ is activated on a Bush/Tree Customers will harvest them on their own. If you use my Auto Gardening Mod and have the Auto Harvest enabled Bushes/Trees which are set for Sale will not be harvested.
The βSet for Saleβ Interactions except Fish & Harvestables show the Retail Price including the Mark-Up etc., so you can see already what you would get but if you change any setting after setting it for sale the price can change of course.
Optional Add-Ons
- Send to Inventory
With this add-on some Items will be send into the Customers Inventory instead of being destroyed. Canvas, Woodworks (which can be put into Sims Inventories) & Books are enabled for this add-on. This way your created Items will indeed end up being bought by Customers. Be aware if you have Mods that clean up Inventories of not played NPCs etc. those Items could be deleted too. - Risk of Kleptos
With this add-on Customers with the Kleptomaniac Trait might not pay for the Items they βbuyβ π - Egg Box/Milk ContainerΒ (Cottage Living)
add-on which adds Options on Milk/Eggs (From Sims Inventory, enough Ingredients need to be in their Inventory) to put 10 of each into a Egg Box/Milk Container which are sellable
OPTIONAL ADD-ONS
