I renovated this terrible house into 6 apartments 

Now we need working elevators that can be used on every floor

This video just proves how insanely big that house was for a single family (even if there are 2 not-related grandparents) but I love it in the apartments-variant, I might try that myself

This is the perfect EA build to be turned into apartments! i’m so excited to watch you do this to the Spencer, Kim, Lewis house. It will be so fun if the family lived in the building afterwards, but as three different entities, Spencer, Kim and Lewis. 😂😂😂🧡🧡🧡

You can get electric blankets with auto shut off so you don’t have to worry about forgetting to turn it off. I have had one for years. And an electric mattress pad. It’s a life changer. Don’t let the trickster of anxiety fool you!

I did this one too! I made it into 5 studio apartments with the ground floor all community amenities. 😂 I can’t wait to actually USE this lot. I never really did before, but now I really like it!

I love how your floor plan for this is so creative with the two floor apartments and big cut outs to lower floors instead of the easiest box to build!!!

I really am envious of your creativity. All of your builds, especially your renovations, look sooo good. You see things I'd like too see. Just wow!

you should make sims that go with this renovation and move them into each apartment I’d be interested in the type of sims you make

The dark brown apartment is probably the one I would want! I love the unique wall shapes and the cozy dark interior 😍 I also like the landing with all the windows. It feels grand walking up the stairs

You made this house soo much better. I really like these modern apartments.

The entire time the pastel apartment was being done I was internally screaming about the stairs overlapping the door. The relief I felt when Deli finally noticed was amazing.

I’ve been waiting so long for someone to renovate this house, not even as an apartment complex. I just wanted someone great at building to do it and looky, looky here comes Deli!!!🎉

Love how it turned out! ❤ Still can’t believe that was one family home before. So massive. This turned out fantastic and almost feels like it was meant to be apartments. Never liked it before but now absolutely love how you transformed it! The interiors are all lovely but my personal fav is the darker one. I love the abstract shape of the apartment. Would be cool to live in.

13:39 - I have a mattress cover that’s heated, it turns off after so many hours so if you forget it on it’s not going all day and night. But I’m definitely dependent on it in the winter time 🥶

Girl. I unplug so much stuff when i leave the house because I'm so afraid of things catching fire. I run around the house before I leave yanking cords like a little maniac.

I am always amazed at how tasteful your builds are! 😍 So nice, definitely will be adding to my game as soon as the pack is available! -- As a suggestion for the next kind of apartment is to do something for those HUGE starter lots in Del Sol Valley! Maybe a small condo with some starter houses for different kinds of starting artists? 😍

I used to live in a very cold climate -6 months of snowy winter! and an electric bed mattress pad was the best ever! It had an automatic turn off after 8 hours which was also a good way to wake up on time… once the bed got cold it was time to get up!

This house was the first one that came to mind when renovating existing houses and I've been working on it for a week now. Great choice Deli ;D

I really really gravitate toward the 5th and 6th apartments. They're SO nicely laid out. The build overall is quite a beauty tbh, the foyer, hallways, community(tay) are so good!

Wasn't that guessing intro pointless since it's in the thumbnail? 😂 this house is awful though so I'm sure it'll work better as apartments 🙏🏻 Edit: you did incredible Deli all the apartments are so beautiful- I think my favourite was that darker minimalist one downstairs!

This was one of the first EA builds I knew I wanted to cut up into apartments! Love it! I also want to say that I'm secretly hoping we get surprise working elevators along side this pack. I realistically know we won't. But I'm kind of hoping they roll it out as a base game update. A girl can dream.

I love the pastel apartment! It feels so light and airy. If only it had a bigger balcony then it would be PERFECT 💛

what's really cool about Deli's apartments here is it's really demonstrative of something I've hear referred to as "multi-class" apartments - basically to prevent areas of a city becoming overly gentrified, or saturated with low income citizens, is to create buildings that have a range of sizes and budgets so that the local hub benefits from a shared pool of wealth. Basically, your wealthier inhabitants will bring in more revenue which can support infrastructure such as better schools, community centres and so on that are hard to fund when you build with only one "class" or socioeconomic range in mind. These are more common in EU than Aus/USA and other western areas though, so it's really cool and surprising to see Deli, an Aussie (like me) demonstrate this in a really cool way in game. As someone who's lived in apartments and gets easily distressed by cramped spaces, I'd probably pick the most minimally furnished 2 bedder, or the apartment that had a bunch of chairs in it because I have a medical condition and sitting down is nice 😅

Hey Deli, I found your fears with heated blankets really interesting but to help you out, I only have them on the couch (I have air conditioning on my room) and almost every single blanket nowadays comes with a timer (hours) and a heat level. Because of that function, there is no way to leave it on all night. Hope that helps. Kisses from Portugal!

This house is perfect as apartments. My favorite is the upstairs teal apartment. 😊

I couldn't live without my electric blanket. It has an auto shut off so it doesn't matter if I forget to turn it off. I don't sleep with it but I sometimes use it to warm up the bed before going to sleep. I would totally choose apartment no two, it's really nice. Good reno!

I would like to live in either the dark minimal ground floor apartment bc of its unique floorplan shape, privacy, double patio spaces, and overall spaciousness OR in the pastel one bc of its two story shape, cute theme, good views, double balconies, and is generous in terms of space. I love that all of the apartments suit the building and the floorplan is cohesive and realistic, but that they are each so unique and have different pros and cons. Amazing decor as always Deli

Only halfway through the vid but I am obsessed with this Reno 🎉❤

I love that you pointed out the dangers of putting a rug under the dining table. Everytime someone does that in a Sims build i always think about how that poor rug is going to get ruined so fast. Lol

I use an electric blanket all winter. I have it on a timer so that it shuts off during the day so there's no worry I'll forget. I turned this building into a mall. So fun to see a completely different take on it. Wonderful build perfect for apartments!

This is a really nice redo! I’m definitely going to add this to my world. I wish the January sale discounted kits too. They aren’t expensive by themselves but they do add up quickly. I think my favorite was the minimal apartment in the ground floor. If I moved in I’d be adding more colors and texture but I like a clean, light base to work with and the overall floor plan is my favorite.

I always get so happy when I see you’ve posted, your videos have always cheered me up! You’ve been my favourite RU-vidr for eight years now!!! Great job as always Deli!

Just letting you know with the electric blanket, the one i have, you have to set a timer. From 1hr-9hrs. So by the time you get out of bed itll be off.

completelyyyyy agree on the "decorating your own room" as a kid. my room is who i am. im 17 but i still feel the need to decorate it the way i feel it would suit so that it represents me as good as it possibly can, and i dont know what i wouldve done if i wasnt allowed to do that lmao

There's lots of different things to like in each apartment, but I like the top teal apartment, and love the pastel apartment. Pastel anything is my favourite 😂 And I love the iridescent tables. They're one of my favourite items in the game! Maybe you could do a whole pastel house sometime? ❤

Deli's little "communi-TIE" thing be givin me big mad "RESPECC MAH AUTHORITAH" vibes and I am here for it.

My favorite apartment is the bigger “minimalist” one on the ground floor. It has such nice views and access to outdoor space 😍

watching deli instead of doing my business assignment is now just my canon sunday event

my favorite one is the last one

14:00 Deli, to help your fears. I have had an electric blanket in the past, I currently use an electric mattress pad (it goes under the fitted sheet) both have auto shutoffs which is about 8 hours after being turned on. You set the temperature setting including a pre-heat which uses the highest setting for about 30 minutes. Ibalso have electric throw blankets that turn off after 3 hours.

Oh, this is an excellent idea! And it works SO well!

I would move into the last apartment because I love when a house or an apartment has an Island. I also love the choice of colors and furniture!!!

35:21 i love this one! I love the mint chocolate colour palette and I love people watching!

I was just renovating this lot too! Though I was doing it for the Spencer-Kim-Lewis family. Always love seeing what you come up with, Deli!

13:45 I'm watching while on my electric blanket. I don't get dependent on it. Some days it's too warm to use it. I only really use it when it's freezing cold outside and my house doesn't have good heating and omg it's amazing.

In the US we have heated blankets with timers! Before we got a split adjustable bed we used one that each side could control. It’s was so nice on nights that got to -60° wind chill 🤣

You should totally do a little build series where you renovate a build into apartments and then do like episodes where you furnish one apartment and create the family who will live there in CAS. Would absolutely love to watch this!!

i gotta say i love your buildings because they dont have the speed builds. You mentioned before that it makes you dizzy and after watching so many i find the same i like that you show the floor plan for those who need it but i am 100 percent here for the slower content thank you

Usually people only use electric blankets for 2 or 3 months a year. If you use a smart electric plug, you can double check if it's off, when you're not home, or put in on, 20 minutes before bedtime. I recommend the infrared heating blankets, because they warm up people/animals, but not the room temperature. So there is less energy loss. Take care.

As a heated blanket owner 1: you do get used to it and it is hard to sleep without it, but you get used to that again too. I’d say for people with chronic pain, a heated blanket can be a big relief. A heated blanket can also be used to preheat your bed. You take it off before sleeping and your bed will cool off slowly while you are in it 2: usually a good quality heated blanket shuts off on its own after a while. There should be a safety in there so nothing can happen. Ofcourse things malfunction, I just never had it happen to me. You can also make it a routine like, stand up, shut off blanket. It doesn’t take long to heat up again when you come back All in all I am a fan. I don’t know if it’s healthy to sleep in a heated bed all the time but I do it anyway. Great for cold winters and snuggling with your partner after you took a walk in the cold!

This was such a good idea. Great stuff. This lot finally makes sense. (Also Pools came out 8 weeks after launch, not quite a year 🤭)

I have several electric blankets, my fav one is a throw that heats up and has an auto timer on it, so it makes the bed all snuggly, looks ace as a throw, can be washed and makes the bed snuggly if you want it to. But can deffo still sleep without it on, but makes the colder nights here in the UK all the more bearable! But I too worry about it catching on fire or forgetting to turn it off or it turning on randomly if there's powercuts, so feel you on the anxiety/overthinking feeling. But don't let the anxiety control you from pursuing comfort

Thanks Del, gonna add it to my game now so it’ll be ready for the new EP ❤

I can absolutely see myself adding this when the original family moves on or dies out❤

Electric blankets have auto shut offs now. I don't feel like I ever got dependent on it. But I regularly shut it off after being in bed a bit cause I would be hot lol.

Really enjoyed this! How building a random apartment building and then you pick random sims from the gallery and you have to furnish each apartment to match the individual families including style they would have (dark for goths, boho for hippies etc) ?

I sleep with an electric blanket! It’s SOOO cozy, and I haven’t found myself being unable to sleep out of the house in places without one. Also, most electric blankets have automatic shut off after a certain amount of hours or if the plug gets loose and what not. Love this build!❤

I love the color scheme of the darker apartment but the 3rd floor apartment layout is my favorite.

These apartments would be amazing in real life too, open spacious like feel, do like the private-courtyard area too. Wouldn't mind living there with hanging plants and all. Or the one with the purple pastel, mint green bedroom area. Little trees and bushes always needed, everyone needs the greenery and such. Makes people more relaxed

I used to have an electric blanket and would accidentally leave it on sometimes. I would wake up with the most awful headaches. My recommendation (if you get one) is to turn it on an hour or so beforehand you go to bed and turn it off when you get in.

I love the layout, views, and color scheme of the third floor apartment!

The flooring and cupboards can be different in real life rentals because they get updated after a tenant moves out. Some tenants may stay for many years and really need an update. Also the same textiles may no longer be available so also another reason for the differences. Excellent re-build by the way ♥

About the blanket, so they typically have an auto shut off. About being dependent, my mom is. Its been years since shes used a normal blanket, she has her home littered in electric blankets because its all she can be warm with. HOWEVER, shes on blood thinner so she naturally is much colder. I have one and use it when Im sick or in pain and its cozyyy

I have an electric blanket in my bed and I LOVE it. I only use if like half an hour before I go to bed, so the bed is warm when I get in. And I turn it off as I enter my bed.

Just a heads up A LOT of electric blankets actually shut off after a certain time to get rid of the worry about forgetting to shut it off and it over heating.

I like the one bedroom with the galley kitchen, it's so sunny!

I think most/all electric blankets have auto shutoffs after a certain amount of time, less scary to leave plugged in Love this build! Can't wait for new expansion pack

Some heated blankets and heating pads have timers and heat settings on them so they automatically turn off on their own so you don’t get burned while you sleep and so you don’t over heat. Hope this helps :)

in regards to electric blankets... you can actually get electric mattress pads that have heaters in them and each side of the bed you can set to a different heat setting if you and your partner have different heat preferences. we got one for xmas last year and it's the best. it also comes with a timer so it shuts off after a certain amount of time. during the winter we turn ours on as we are getting ready for bed so its nice and warm under our blankets and it turns off while we are sleeping. by that point our body heat under the blankets is enough. I recommend this over the heated blanket personally. I used to have a heated blanket and it was nice but I prefer the mattress pad way more. we put it under our waterproof mattress protector and it still works great!

I was so excited to see you do this one, and per usual you did AMAZING!! It works out so much better this way!! I've got a coffee and some dark chocolate, watched your video and now I feel like renovating some EA builds into apartments myself.

Its so cool that while watching, I could envision who i could see living in each unit! The small studio would house a hard-working, sporty student who can often be found at the gym and is very sociable with their neighbours. The other downstairs apartment houses a sweet, retired couple that kinda keep to themselves. They migrated when they were young and the minimalism comes from them appreciating the small things in life and not really needing much more. One of them used to be some sort of designer so they really made the place special despite the minimalism. The pastel apartment houses a young single mom and her adorable daughter. They both love cute things and pastel colors and... The mom probably likes all the cutesy stuff more than her daughter does. The other second floor apartment got a middle aged single person who's just living the life, not really needing someone to love cause they love themselves enough. The dark apartment houses a career driven couple that decided to not have any children. Theyre very cool, fashionable and hardworking of course. The top floor apartment has a couple with their son thats at the beginning of junior high. They recently made a far move so the kid is still not very used to the new place, so his parents went all out for his cute dino room but he mayy start to find it a little childish soon 😅 I clearly went way too far with this but i just loved thinking about the stories this building could hold

I would like to live in the pastel apartment. Love the layout of the entire building!!

We built the house I grew up in when I was about 8, my parents let me decide what I wanted my room to look like and I was a massive ocean nerd kid so I had it a gradient blue from ceiling to floor with loads of sea creatures and kelp and stuff painted on it, so the deal was that because we'd spent so much time and effort painting it, I did not have posters or anything up in my bedroom. At all. I had photos and stuff on the bookcase, but nothing on the walls, which was fair, but by the time I was 17 and in my last year of high school it was super embarrassing! They redecorated it for me when I was away my first term of uni but now I kinda wish there was a bit of the old decor left. Even if it was just the deep sea angler fish in the corner! Anyway, my tuppence about decorating kids rooms aside, I loved this! Especially the mint green bedroom, that one was super pretty

Electric blankets rock. As someone else mentioned there is auto shut off. I also have an Electric heating pad great for cramps of all sorts. My cats also love it. There are like rice packs you can heat up that aren't as scary of an idea. I do get what you mean though. From Michigan, usa here & it can get cold. We like warm snuggly beds.

I sleep with an electric blanket and have for 2 years now. You are correct, I’m totally dependent on it lol. I’m super paranoid about leaving it on and triple check it’s off before I leave the room like I do with my flatiron.

The apartments are all lovley in their own way. The dark eood is cozy and the angles are fun. The teal and orange is great and my favorite t For me to live in is the pastel. Its so fun and colorful and cute right down to the egg rug! ❤

You and James talking about the build at 2am is so funny!!! I recently got my partner into the sims and now we both spend so long looking at each others builds and helping each other. It’s always so helpful to get someone else to give you ideas!

I have had a heated blanket for 3 years now. I love it but it lets me turn my heat so far down at night save money. My heated blanket automatically turns off after 10 hours. You can also set the automatic turn off less if you want. Amazing buy.

I am so glad that they made the „for rent“ pack. I love to make „3 generations“ houses or flats myself and I always locked the doors so that just the Sims who live in the flat, have access to it. Now its way easier ❤

I would definitely live in the pastel apartment, OR the large bottom floor apartment, i love the space and the garden areas!

About electric blankets, I am totally dependent on mine. I've had it for just about a year and I used it even in summer, just to warm up the foot of my bed and turning it off when I got into bed. I hate sleeping with socks and I've been sleeping like a baby because of that blanket. It also turns itself off after 4 hours, so no risk of fire.

I have an electric blanket and im obsessed with it, not dependent (yet) but do love it. However, a couple weeks ago my entire apartment block was evacuated due to a fire and I came home to find everyone outside, my first thought was that my blanket had exploded and burnt all of my belongings. It wasn't me, but like I totally understand your fear, very valid

I’m so excited to play in this house!! This is a perfect apartment building for community drama & a variety of different sims living there. :)

I have an electric blanket that I got from Kmart or Target. It has a timer so I set it to 1 hour that way my bed is cosy when I get into it. It's also separated into a body and a foot section, so sometimes I just put the body section on to help with period or back pain. P.S. Fellow Aussie from WA

Loved the build! You should do the landgraab house. Del Sol Valley would also be great for apartments on that 50*40 lot in mirage park.

When I first got the sims yearssss and years ago I always thought it looked like an apartment, so glad it’ll be a real functional apartment soon

the bedroom in the pastel house reminds me so much of my own bedroom in my last apartment! purple sheets and mint green walls!

I just finished making it into 3 apartments! I love updating and refurbishing this house :D

I use a heating blanket in bed all winter, and mine auto turns off after 10 hours, I highly recommend it if you don't like to turn up the heat in your house when it's cold.

Loved the way you designed this building. The layout is 👌🏼

Woah, you made this house make so much more sense

I never liked that weird house, I bulldozed it but it looks so much better now! My favorite apartment is the pastel one😊I'm a bit tired of bland builds and interiors beige, brown or white, I'm so happy to see colors!😃I also loved the mix of the orange and teal in the last apartment. I don't wear white either for the same reason.

The pastel apartment is giving Gen Z single mom. Love that for her. I like the ground floor green apartment for me, although the pool area might get a little noisy with all those neighbor kids!

Can’t wait for the for rent pack, I made a trailer park and an apartment for oasis springs, hoping to get my save file finished up this year :)

My favorite is actually the one with darker floor. Love it!

I made this into apartments in my save too, but I made multiple tiny apartments on each floor and added another level. Love how yours turned out!

I got a Deli ad on a Deli video. The meta behind this is insane.

What a great renovation! 😁 I really hope they add little simlish door numbers that we can put outside our units in build mode.

Heated blankets are a death trap, I recommend weighted blankets though or stuffies!

I'm sure someone already said it but they do have auto-shut off blankets. I have a king size heated blanket, its dual control so my bf and I can decide our own heat levels. There are 4 timer modes and it shuts off ay 4 hours regardless. In regards to getting too attached to it... worth it.
