    To get this achievement, you must own a house that is worth 35k. You can buy things to increase the value, such as TVs, stuff for the kitchen, you get the point. The easiest way to get this achievement, however, is to go to a new game. Then select Choose Household. Then select any household that is worth 35k or more(I moved in with Alice Rannt). From there, go to build and buy, and purchase and add something to the house. Once you do that, go back to live mode. Achievement should be unlocked after you go back to live mode.

    I was able to do this after writing many best-selling books and moving high up in my career path. Basically you just need to spend enough money on your house to raise the total property value to over 35,000, or you need to move to a house that costs more than 35,000. I never spent any money actually building on to the house, I was able to get the value up by buying expensive things including a pricey car. Everything counts towards the 35k, but the longer you own items, the more they depreciate in value.
