Perhaps we could select parts of the lot that we want to keep as well. I really wish we had the ability to downsize lots when we have a normal sized or small house on a huge lot and don't want to have to rebuild the same house on a small lot. On your computer or phone, go to real estate again, click move, then move to private lot. This idea would work well if people wanted the option to save the whole house as a unit and make it so that it could be placed on smaller lots (so long as the lots are large enough to fit all of the objects selected. On computer, go to real estate, view private lots for sale, buy one, then close the real estate menu.

Create a female Sim with the traits snob materialistic you move them into a 50. The ability to select and move the entire house while in build mode would be excellent. This way we could select just a group of objects that we want to keep together as a set (like the layout of a bathroom but we don't want to move every piece individually to a new spot (yet don't want to move the floors or walls). Perhaps there could be checkmarks within the tool to select walls (or not select walls), select floors (or not). We could either select a specific tool (such as a Group Selection Tool) and drag click around things (and we could have an option to deselect certain things individually if we don't want them to be part of it). My proposition was that we have a tool that lets us select objects to group together and link them and have the ability to 'move as a group' or 'move as a whole'.

It was in something about build mode suggestions.

I suggested this a loooong time ago in a thread that I can no longer find. We already have the ability to move walls sort of (if nothing is in their way or resting up against them).
