What you’ll learn over 4 weeks
This is not just a “how to rent land” class. It’s a complete blueprint for running a professional virtual real estate business across Second Life and compatible OpenSim grids. We combine live teaching, real examples, checklists, and templates you can reuse.
- Understanding how land really works in Second Life & OpenSim.
- Estate vs. mainland vs. homesteads: pros, cons, and ideal use cases.
- What makes a parcel truly valuable: location, rating, access, and performance.
- Business mindset: treating rentals like a service, not just a box with prims.
- Basic tools: land search, map usage, region scouting, and due diligence.
- Where to actually find land: auctions, private estates, and quiet deals.
- Reading between the lines of land descriptions and covenant rules.
- Looking at traffic, neighbors, and region history before you commit.
- Structuring your holdings: personal, group, or multi-partner ownership.
- Checklists for “buy” vs. “walk away” decisions.
- Turning raw land into turn-key homes, shops, and venues people want.
- Layout principles: access, camera angles, privacy, and performance.
- Working with builders & scripters: collaboration without chaos.
- Rental systems: boards, notecards, landmarks, and welcome flows.
- Creating “ready to move in” experiences that rent faster and stay filled.
- Pricing models: how to set fair, profitable weekly rates.
- Understanding your real costs: tiers, ads, staff, and maintenance.
- Cashflow planning: keeping the estate stable even when tenants rotate.
- Using Game Tokens (GTs) and L$ together in your rental strategy.
- Planning your next step: scaling up, partnering, or specializing.
