Question about account and house placement.

Hi there.

So I have a bunch of accounts that I have acquired over the years from people passing on or just quitting the game. It has been like 15 years or so since I have placed a house so I am not familiar with how it works these days.

I have a couple accounts that I don't know if they have a house or not but i'd like to check it somehow. Is there a way to check if there is a house on the account without compromising a house I don't know about?

On one of the accounts the previous owner said there was more than a couple dozen houses on it. I have only found 2 so far and that took a ton of time so I have given up on the rest because they could be anywhere.

Each UO account (what you login to the game with) can have 1 house on Prodo Shards and 1 house on Old Ruleset Shards.

I don't know of any way to tell if you have a house unless you know where it is. The only thing I could suggest is to go through every one of your runes in your backpack and see if one of them leads you to a house you own.

Thanks for the reply!

These are all old accounts so there's a possibility that they had 1 house per character up to 5 per server grandfathered in. I have gone thru all of the runes that I could find and checked all around where they were marked.

I was just curious if there was a different prompt while placing for an account with a house vs an account without a house?

No prompt, only if you've just recently placed a house it will give you a warning ~You cannot place a house because you have just recently placed blah blah....otherwise it gives the *you are about to place a house, this action will condemn any other houses you may have* message.....it won't tell you if you already have one..unfortunately..I think it should.

Do you still have to manually reset grandfathered houses? e.g. open the front door etc... I know this was the case long long ago but that could have easily changed since I have looked into older housing.
