Gamepass prices change with sales, so check my Brookhaven gamepasses ranked page for what's worth it.

No On Demand Fire? Leave a fireplace on for a few minutes. The game will ask if you want the house to catch fire. Free chaos.

Roleplay houses with no real interior, like ruins, may skip locks, windows, garages and pools completely.

How to use House Controls

  1. Claim a house, apartment or estate.
  2. Open the House Controls menu from your screen, or use the manual control panel inside the building.
  3. Tap the control you want. Only supported ones show up.
  4. Seasonal events can add a decorations toggle, which places random themed furniture each time you switch it.

RP ideas

  • Home security: lock up, watch the cameras and "catch" the burglar roleplayer.
  • Disaster drill: trigger a disaster and have your family evacuate. See house disasters.
  • Pool party: Premium pool, music on, sign reading "PARTY TONIGHT."
  • Clean-up day: props control clears all the junk your guests left behind.

Little-known facts

  • House Controls used to show every button for every house, even ones that didn't work.
  • Signs used to be limited to six colors. Now there's a full palette.
  • Baby Furniture from the main menu skips the confirmation prompt, but the manual panel asks first.

Lock your doors, people. Half the chaos in public servers is random players wandering into unlocked houses. The free controls cover almost everything, and the paid ones are just fun extras.

FAQ

How do you lock your door in Brookhaven?

Open House Controls and tap Lock Doors. Some houses also lock the backyard doors.

Why can't I see the pool button?

Your house either already has a pool, doesn't support one, or you don't have Premium.

How do you set your house on fire in Brookhaven?

Use the On Demand Fire gamepass from the manual control panel, or leave a fireplace on for a few minutes and accept the prompt.

Do motel rooms have House Controls?

Yes, but without disasters, pools or garage controls.

How do you remove props from your house?

Use Props Controls in House Controls to clear all placed props.
