Another AcrePilot update is live.
This one changes some of the underlying market supply so the commercial real estate market behaves more like a changing regional market instead of one global pool with different price multipliers.
AcrePilot now varies marketplace depth, property mix, deal-size mix, and building-age mix by region.
That means regions should feel somewhat different from each other. A faster-growth market may generally have deeper deal flow and more recently built inventory, while other regions may have more older stock or a different mix of multifamily, storage, and NNN opportunities.
Market cycles still matter too, so none of those regional characteristics guarantee a certain number or quality of deals.
I also corrected a long-term building-age issue that became pretty obvious in multigenerational saves.
Previously, newly generated properties had a hard-coded maximum construction year of 2020. So if you were playing in 2050, 2080, or later, the commercial real estate market basically acted like nobody had built another building since 2020. 😅
Newly generated AcrePilot listings now use the current simulation year when determining building age while still preserving a mix of recent, modern, mature, older, and legacy properties.
Existing listings and properties you already own are not rerolled or rewritten. The new supply rules apply as new properties enter the market.
The existing competitive listing lifecycle is also unchanged. Properties can still age on the market, reprice, sell to outside buyers, withdraw, and be replaced by new opportunities.
Existing saves are supported. No restart is required.
Thanks again for all of the reports and saves. Some of you are getting far enough into these dynasties that you are finding things I would have had a hell of a time reaching on my own. 😂
