Hey guys,

I'm Robin.. my character is Nan Swindlehurst. I am super new to SL and the first thing that really interested me was the depth of this Sim world / RP.. I am considering renting a trailer or an apt... but I wonder if I am better off renting here in this area or somewhere else and traveling in..

What is the big difference between owning land and renting? Is it super hard to buy land or extremely expensive? Once you own it.. do you have to still pay a monthly fee on it?

AND:

if renting here locally to the RP.. has anyone rented the trailers or the apts.. is one better than the other.... are there pros and cons?

I don't want to make a mistake so early on.

Right now a friend has built me a temp house on her land but I have to teleport into the RP.. I'm not sure what I want to do. And it may be moot considering i've yet to really do any RP of my own.

thanks for your input

Robin..

oh yeah and are there any other options than the two rentals i've seen locally?
