BuyLand
What does it do?
BuyLand allows users to buy, sell, rent, and price WorldGuard Regions. It uses the WorldGuard Flags BUYABLE and PRICE as a starting point, and allows players to set additional WorldGuard flags as they see fit. A player simply types /buyland [Region Name] or /rentland [Region Name] 1 Week and it will deduct the money from their account. An even easier way to do this is to click on BuyLand signs. This plugin uses WorldGuard, WorldEdit, and Vault. You can also configure how many regions a single person is allowed to own, as well as the default price someone will pay if no price is specifically set. You can also set the sell back price as a percentage. The Land once bought will take a snapshot of the land and save it. As soon as the Land is sold it will restore the land back to the snapshot.
Quote from chriztopia:I found that plugins like Towny and other plot plugins are sometimes hard to install and a pain to maintain. So I created this plugin for my servers and wanted to share it.

Like always, please submit tickets for any defects that occur in the latest release.
When making suggestions for new features, please submit one suggestion per ticket. Try not to lump 5 suggestions in one ticket. It makes it very hard to track progress of each sub-part.
Quote from Planned in v0.8.9:
- Any changes needed to get to Bukkit version 1.7+
- Some small changes to signs and how players interact with them.
- Possible changes:

- Add a way for a player to sell an owned region to another player.
- Add a way to have the money from a purchased region and a sold region transition to a bank
- Possibly resolve some more tickets
- Try to work on some help sections to describe in better detail how to do things in BuyLand and configuration yml files.
- Any other items that may come up.

Version 0.8.7
- Bug fix only release
- Tickets 65 & 66 - Fixes bugs introduced in 0.8.6
- When a region was initially rented, rent extended, and rent region expired, the schematics were not being applied or saved from the settings.
- It should have been looking for a setting of rentland.onRentExpire.placeSchematic, but was actually looking at
buyland.onRentExpire.placeSchematic.- This and similar issues caused it to never find the setting for placing or saving the schematic in the onRentBegin, onRentExtend, and onRentExpire events.
- This also affected the removelwcprotection setting in the same sections.
- It should have been looking for a setting of rentland.onRentExpire.placeSchematic, but was actually looking at
- When a region was initially rented, rent extended, and rent region expired, the schematics were not being applied or saved from the settings.
- Ticket 67 - Fixes bugs introduced in 0.8.5
- When a player with a mixed case name such as AndyCYXU buys a region, they can not sell it because it says they are not the owner.
- When comparing the owner's name to the player's name, the players name was left upper case while the owners name was forced lower case when it was created.
- This caused the name to not match, and flagged the player as not being the owner and denied the sale back.
- When comparing the owner's name to the player's name, the players name was left upper case while the owners name was forced lower case when it was created.

Help
- Visit this detailed help page for more detailed information on how Buyland works.
RentLand Config
Normally rentable regions are setup with the /rentland save [regionName] command. You can also convert an existing buyable region to a rentable region by adding it manualy in the rent.yml config file.
How to create a rentable region
You must use /rentland save [regionname] and NOT /buyland save [regionname]
Creating a buyland region and trying to place a rent sign on it will not allow it to be rentable!
How to set the sell back percentage
The sell back percentage is based on the decimal form of a percent. So 1.0 equals 100% which means if u buy land for $100 you can sell it for $100. If you set the percentage to 0.6 or 60% the sell back price of $100 would mean you will only get back $60 for selling back your land.
- 1.0 = 100%
- 0.9 = 90%
- 0.8 = 80%
- 0.7 = 70%
- 0.6 = 60%
- 0.5 = 50%
Sign Usage
Sign Setup
To create a buyland sign, create the region as specified above and in the How to create a rentable region help page. When placing a sign, add the following 2 lines and it will create a sign specific for the type of region it is for. Lines 3 and 4 should be blank. You can also read about signs here.
- [BuyLand]
- RegionName
A BuyLand sign can be placed anywhere outside the region it represents.
@Luzitano
Your two donations plus everyone else's equals two... Anyway thank you for donating. I stopped development because of all the issues that started appearing and I no longer have time to work on them.
Why stop the development :( i Donated 2 times for this :( Best plugin outhere :(
maybe think about stopping horses entering houses. As if your on a horse. it bypasses the whole stopping u from entering a region
I have decided to end development on BuyLand there will be no new updates released. The latest code has been published to github if anyone would like to continue development. I am sorry for any problems this may cause. Thank you to everyone who has used Buyland and supported it. I will try to get the Vault issue resolved but that will be my last release.
It's not working for me at ALL.
I am getting the same console error as the people below me have stated:
2013-09-11 13:26:58 [INFO] [BuyLand] Enabling BuyLand v0.8.0 2013-09-11 13:26:58 [INFO] BuyLand version 0.8.0 is enabled! 2013-09-11 13:26:58 [INFO] Could not load due to Vault not being loaded. 2013-09-11 13:26:58 [INFO] [BuyLand] Disabling BuyLand v0.8.0 2013-09-11 13:26:58 [INFO] BuyLand is now disabled.
So what's the deal? I have the most up to date version of Vault installed on my server. I have my server at MCProHosting, so I know they have the most recent version of these plugins. Can we get a fix for this please? Or is there a way to make this work without needing Vault?
Conflict with lwc ... Can you fixe it please?

latest WG / WE / Buyland and Vault ...
Anyone seen this?
I changed my rent.yml file to 0.35 for minute but the price is still 1.00 for minute, please help.
Allso, How about making the land resetable ? After your rent time is over ther land will reset to the original look, Delete any buildings or place back destroyed blocks..
Would love to see a way for players who buy land to be able to on-sell it for profit (like a real estate market) or rent it out. That would be perfect!
@NyssaZ
Looks like the buyland.maxland.<amount> is required.
@Kirstiana
Thank you for going in depth with this problem. My first solution was to turn all names to lowercase and it seems I missed a few parts. I will work on getting a bug fix for this soon.
@Th3Z0n3
Is your or your friends name have Capital Letters in it?
Something is buggy. If i or my friends try to buy a region it shows "You have bought the Maximum amount of land allowed". What can i do?
•/abl price [regionname] [cost] - Use this to set a price for each individual region. (if you dont use this command the default price from config will take over.)
There's a bug with the renting feature in BuyLands, not sure if it's also with the buying and selling, but here's what I found:
When people join the world, their names get registered in rentdb.yml in lowercase, but when they click the signs, their names are register in the file with their proper uppercase letters. So when the rent time ends, it's subtracting from the all lowercase name, rather than their true name that they clicked the sign with that has the "1". This is preventing them from renting a new plot if I only allowed them to have 1.
@Ques0King
Buyable or Sellable you just delete it as you would remove a normal WorldGuard Region.
For rent you would need to not only remove the worldguard region buy also remove the region name from rent.yml..
If you want to keep the region buy just remove the option to buy/sell/rent remove any flags added to that reigon such as buyable... Check /worldguard info on that region to see what flags it may have.
@sammyturbo123
This feature has been added and will be released soon. I am working on a few bugs before release. For now I may only do Buying and Selling and not renting. It depends on time.
Also could you possibly fix where when people sell there house. everything gets reset on what they have edited on the house except for paintings. The paintings stay there when they sell the house
I agree to sammyturbo123, please add the option of how many plots a player can own.
