Grief Prevention - Real Estate
Grief Prevention - Real Estate aims to extend the Grief Prevention plugin by allowing users to be able to buy and sell claims or subclaims. Currently this is one of the biggest requests that are made for this plugin and the author has pointed out that they are concentrating on anti-griefing aspect of GP and that the API is there for anyone that wants to help extend the project!
BETA RELEASE
Note: You must have Grief Prevention and Vault installed for this plugin to work. You must also have an economy system and permission system supported by Vault.
Using this plugin could not be simpler, you sell a claim (or lease a subclaim) simply create a sign in your claim or subdivision as follows..
LINE 1 - [RE] or [RealEstate]
LINE 2 - The cost to buy or lease this claim ,i.e. 100
Once you have created this sign one of two things will happen.
- If this is a full claim the sign will change and the plot will be put up FOR SALE
- If this is a subdivision the sign will change and the plot will be put up FOR LEASE
To buy or lease a plot a player simply needs to right click on the sign and all relevant permissions will be granted and money will be transferred! If the plot was marked as FOR SALE then the player will be the new owner, if the plot was marked as FOR LEASE then the plot has had all previous permissions wiped and the player now has PermissionsTrust and Build privileges.
Note - Players do not lease a claim for a set period of time; the lease is permanent. The terminology is different to distinguish between the permissions received between a claim and a subdivided claim. With a subdivided claim the new player is not made the owner of the claim but is given full management and build permissions (but the owner of the parent claim will also have full permissions!). However, the land owner could still evict the new player at anytime - You have been warned!
Although this is a beta build it has been tested to for stability however I cannot guarantee that it will work with all configurations. If you experience a problem please let me know what happened, what you was doing and what plugins you have installed (report a ticket).
Please note that no configuration file is produced at this time and therefore no directory is created in the plugins folder.

@leezallen
Is this plugin going to be compatible with 1.4.7 yet cause i really wanna sell my plots without having to use the trust commands, i mean i can its just then i can still access it so what good is that? Either way what i'm trying to say is can you please update the plugin to 1.4.7 please!
Thank you :D
@acrob4ticon: I am currently testing an update on my server, the biggest change is leasing admin claims and a small change to the format of the signs... If all goes well it should be up this weekend.
Still working on changes to allow for time base leasing.. Java not my first, second or third language so finding it difficult to wrap my head around database structures!
any news on when the update will be?
eager to roll this out on my server.
am i to understand that lease is not a re-occuring payment? it's just one off... and the only different being permissions?
How much longer until an update is available? I'm having trouble Leasing subdivided plots
Is the update coming, is the update coming...? :)
There was one feature what our server members came up with (which shouldn't be that hard to do.. maybe): you could lease container or accesstrustes. Just wanted to say this, because it would be awesome feature too.
@leezallen
Hmm, it should be possible without causing lag I would think. I believe you would just have to possibly save the start and end times of each one to a database of some sort and maybe during a certain event or periodically check if they are expired. Maybe it could even use the move event to see if they are in a claim, and if they are if it's a leased claim check if it's expired or not. You might even be able to do it all in an async task since it's not actually modifying anything and mostly just doing some calls to check the claims.
Expect a release in the next week...
Expected Updates
- Fully working with Admin Claims - Allow owners to sell permissions to a plot rather than the plot itself (i.e. access trust)
I have no news on the leasing for a set amount of time because every attempt I have tried causes so much lag it is unbelievable.. If anyone has any Java experience and wants to contribute that would be great!
Hey there, any status update on allowing owners to lease for a set period of time? Just wondering if I should work it into something I am working on or not. Thanks =)
Hello, It would really benefit our economy servers if you could go ahead and make it possible to lease from admin for a certain amount of time.
That way people can rent an apartment for example for one week and then if they leave the server its no biggy. it wouldn't matter if their stuff is left inside because it would be their fault.
PLEASE ADD SET TIME OF LEASE AND I WILL BE ETERNALLY GRATEFUL
I would like an update because it currently needs more functionality, it's useless to me if I can't rent out admin claims :(
Boy am I glad ignorant people aren't asking for updates without bothering to discover it works great with 1.4.6.
Although, an update that allows leasing for a time period would be nice.
@ManBeastPigDev
I would assume that you can't resell a lease that you bought from someone else. Whoever you bought it from is still the owner of the subclaim.
Was wondering if a land owner lease the land to a new player and as the new player places chest /w item in the lease land , if the land owner evict the new player from the land dose the new player lose access to there chest and item? or are they still able to retrieve those items?
also can i disable leasing in the config to prevent this?
I'd love an update on the status of this plugin. I'm trying to patiently wait for renting claims. Any updates?
Thanks!
Hello there. Love GriefPrevention! This real estate extention for it was hard to find. i did a lot of searches for grief prevention rent till finally found the link to this after about 10 mins of searching. I see its been awhile since you last updated. No biggie. Wanted to say thanks and hope you will eventually finish the to do list. Im sure your busy. Anyways Thanks for the great plugins!
@ManBeastPigDev
I am top rank and OP, and still can't resell subdivided leased land. Maybe thats normal?
I've not tried SOLD land yet.
For some reason I can't re-sell plots i've bought from someone else.
I think leasing subdivided claims from admin is probably the biggest thing I'm waiting on with this
ToDo: Please :)
Allow administrators to lease subdivided claims in an administrative claim.
I saw that you have that written and I am looking forward to this feature! Keep it up!
@leezallen
Hm, on my signs there is the currency visible.
