Increase Unit Cap
By default, the For Rent expansion has a maximum limit of 6 units per Residential Rental lot. Considering that each unit could potentially house 8 Sims with a total of 48 Sims able to live on one lot, this is a pretty good number of units. However, some players may still wish to have more than 6 units on their Residential Rental lots.
To do this, make sure you’re in Build/Buy on a Residential Rental lot. Open the cheat bar the same way outlined above for your platform and type in bb.increaserentalunitcap on, then confirm the cheat. This cheat will allow you to put up to 94 more units on the lot.
WARNING: There is a good reason the developers limited the number of units on a Residential Rental lot to 6. Adding more may make your game unstable. If you are experiencing performance issues after enabling this cheat, you can disable it by bringing up the cheat bar again and typing in bb.increaserentalunitcap off.
Career Cheats

- aspirations.complete_current_milestone – Instantly completes the active Sim’s current aspiration milestone
- sims.give_satisfaction_points # – Gives the desired number of satisfaction points to the active Sim
Trait Cheats
This expansion pack also comes with plenty of new traits. You can easily equip or remove any of these traits from your Sims with the following Sims 4 For Rent cheats:
INSTRUCTIONS: There are two cheats that let you either assign or remove a new Sims 4 For Rent Trait. To “build” a proper cheat structure for Sims Traits, follow this example:
Cheat to Add Trait: traits.equip_trait trait_
Cheat to Remove Trait: traits.remove_trait trait_
Down below is a list of all the new Sims 4 For Rent Traits – both from CAS and the ones you can unlock through gameplay. Add the bolded Trait name in the beginning to the structure above.
