A lot (also known as a property) is a portion of land or water within a town on which a Property Marker has been placed.
Unclaimed lots can be claimed by players using an appropriately sized Lot Deed (certain restrictions apply).
Lot Sizes
There are several lot sizes (listed from smallest to largest):
Scenes that Have Lots
Lots may be found in Player Owned Towns, Player Run Towns, and NPC Towns.
Larger towns have the capacity for more lots, and will often have more of the larger lot sizes.
Finding an Available (Unclaimed) Lot
When in a scene with lots, you can identify available lots by the following methods:
- Ask town criers or guards - mention "free lot", and they will respond by displaying a list of all lots in the scene. Under the "Owner Name" column, a lot will be listed as "Available" if it is unclaimed. To help you navigate to a specific lot, you can click on a lot in the listing, and then click on "Set Compass Destination" (this will create a red house icon on your compass that you can use to find your way to the lot).
- Press & Hold down the P key - this will send an upward white smoke-like stream from the property marker of any nearby unclaimed lots (tapping the P key will not work, you must hold down the P key; also P is the default key-bind for this, but you can change which key is used in the Options > Controls menu under "Ping Lot Signs").
- Double-click on a Property Marker - the property marker window that pops up will state "unclaimed" if the lot is available.

Additional Information
Town Criers may also bind you to a town on request, which sets that town as your Recall point for Recall scrolls. This can be handy if you do not own a lot to bind to.
