Doesn't exist.

If you are already in Redoran when you join Hlaalu I don't think anything will stop you from becoming Top Dog in both. If you are in Telvanni and Hlaalu you will need a mod to join Redoran (the 'fighting house').

This is in the wrong forum entirely.

Actually, from what I have expierienced, there will be a problem. As Hlaalu you have to kill ____ Indarys, which makes Indarys manor appear. That means that you cant get your manor as a Redoran.

Well, from the sound of things, he's just starting out in House Hlaalu. Probably smelled the slime from the second quest (Which, might I add, is excruciatingly hard -- it would take a level 68 baby-eating Necromancer with a heart of some sort of odd Uranium-Tungsten alloy to punkmug that poor alchemist, and I'm not just talking about the moral issues).

As long as you haven't started the stronghold construction, you'll most likely be fine.

Easy way to get all three manors--build one and then go visit the others and kill everyone within. Ta-da, three manors just for you.

Er... no? They have to be activated via a variable. They don't even exist until you do the quests based around them.

Just to clarify what appears to be slightly unclear at the moment. When you begin your stronghold (in whichever house you are) all three are started. None exists before that. They proceed at exactly the same rate. I.e when you have the first level, all three are at the first level etc. Part of your duties includes having to kill the owners of the other two strongholds. (You can then consider them yours if you wish but the merchants will not deal with you.) However if you were already head of house Redoran you do not need to kill yourself to become owner of Hlaalu (interesting concept). It just becomes yours. You do not need to do any quests to complete it - it is complete. The merchants in both strongholds will deal with you as you are a member of both houses.

This can happen if you start as Telvanni or Redoran and then join Hlaalu through the glitch (bug). Without a mod (or perhaps a cheat via the console I don't use such things) you cannot start as Hlaalu and get two working strongholds.
