NeoHome Guide
Now
who wouldn't enjoy the privacy or maybe not so private comfort of their
brand new luxurious neohome! Rumored to be the all new craze in the
loony planet neopia, these houses can be built from anything ranging
from cardboard, chocolate, straw to expensive gold! The most intriguing
thing about neohomes is that you are never done with 3 floors, you can
build extensions to your home, build stairways and doors, have gardens,
buy insurance, install different systems of lightings, decorate your
walls and floor, buy furniture and place them in your neohome, and hold
wild parties! Land for your neohome can range from neopia central to
faerie land or the exclusive mysterious macarra seas.
How do I start building my neohome?
To build your neohome, you must first apply for a plot of land from
the councils and builders. To do this, go to neopet central (located on
the yellow navigation bar) and click on the icon that says "Your NeoHome" After this, you will then be taken to a screen where you
can choose where you want your plot of land to be. Options range from
neopia central, the snow to the all exclusive faerie land! Each plot of
land has a different price range to choose from so the rich and the poor
can each have their own neohomes. After choosing where you want your
neohome to be built, it usually takes from 2 - 5 hours before the
application is approved. You will be notified of your approved or
disapproved application by neomail.
I have my neohome, now what do I do?
After you have your neohome, you may then start building your rooms!
You should decide on what material to use depending on what typing of
neopet you have. For instance, if you have a dinosaur type neopet, then
it would be best to build your rooms out of stones so your neopet is
more comfortable in its surroundings. However, a little variation never
hurt and some of the material do come quite expensive. To start building
rooms, you have to be on the main screen of your neohome. Then click on
the link which says "My NeoHome" you will be taken to a screen
where you will see a large square divided into many smaller squares of
un built land. Click on any square and a window will pop up asking you
what material you want to use and where you want your doors to be:
North: Up
East: Right
South: Down
West: Left
Construction usually takes between 1 - 5 hours.
Can I build more than one room at a time?
No you may not. Your construction workers can only concentrate on
one task at a time. Have patience :) the longer they take, the better
job they do.
I have build my homes, now what do I do?
After you have built your first room, you are able to upgrade your
room by clicking on "Extension Operations" located on the main
page of your neohome. Here, you are able to upgrade your security,
lighting systems, heating systems, wall coverings and floor coverings.

Can I cancel my constructions
and will I get my money back?
Yes you can, you cancel your constructions, go to Building Status
located in your neohome main page and you can cancel your construction
from there. However, your construction workers are prepaid and they will
not refund you.
How many neohomes am I allowed to have?
One, only one :)
How do I put furniture into my neohome?
You must first buy furniture. These can be bought from various
furniture shops from the market place, the shops, the tyrannian
furniture store which specializes in stone furniture and the maracquan
underwater furniture store. Once you have bought it, go to your
inventory, click on the item and select 'place in neohome'.
NeoHome, Gardens and Tips
Tip for those that would like to build a
NeoHome, and build gardens as
well
Submitted by Morakai
Build your house first. Make sure to get all the building extensions that you want like insurance, flooring, lights, etc, BEFORE you build a single garden.
The reason for this is Neopets counts a garden as a room. The building extensions are priced per room, so if you have gardens it will drive the price up. Why pay for flooring that you don't want in a garden?
When you look at someone's userinfo, Neopets counts gardens as rooms (for example my user info says:
"NeoHome: 11 rooms"). But when you go to the Extension Options page, neopets doesn't count gardens as rooms anymore. (at the extension options-page it tells to me "Rooms: 9" because I have 2 gardens). So you won't be paying for flooring or wallpapers for a garden.

Getting the extensions without the added
costs!
Submitted by beans46
If you want a new room AND an extension, then you should do this:
1. Submit your order to build the room.
2. Go get an extension.
If you do that, you don't have to pay for the extra extension when you build the room, and you don't have to pay for the extra room when you get the extension! It's a win-win situation!
