Can't buy a house in Solitude

[kayeheart]

I'm having a problem where Falk Firebeard won't sell me the house in Solitude. The option is available, but when I click it he doesn't give me the house key. His dialogue is normal, saying that I've paid and can have the key, but he doesn't take my money or give me access. I have quite a few mods installed, so one of them may be the problem, but I wanted to know if anyone has more specific advice (i.e. which mod it might be, I have 135 installed...). I'm going to try verifying the game files on steam etc., but I don't see that fixing the problem. Any advice?

Hi, I face the same problem here. I try to unload all the mod and the problem still exist. Finally, I find out that the problem is caused by the "Unofficial Skyrim Patch". I try to load Skyrim only with skyrim.esm and update.esm, then I can buy the house. But I still cannot found anyway to get rid of this problem with activating the "Unofficial Skyrim Patch".

Ask the modder?

I know is old post, but Just for anyone Else with this Problem, who needs help, and all Else has failed them, inculding the "Do this", or "Oh! it is a problem in your Loaded Mod's", or the really simple one's " You have something installed Wrong " or " It works find for me " Or " that problems was solved in a Patch way back there, Read this post I googled, and put here so I would look Smart.. "

 

I had this problem constantly if I tried to run Usleep, I restarted new game I don't know how many time's ( Over 15 times, from Helgen to The first dead dragon ) trying to get past this with USLEEP installed.

 

I ran a completely vanilla game, ( except for Race menu, and XPMSE, along with Body Texture's and SkyUI ), and still could not buy home with USLEEP installed.

 

I could run the Singular USKP patches no problem ( buy Home's every time ), but Not with USLEEP. With it installed, I could buy no Player home at all.

 

I even left USLEEP out of my Install until I had bought the Whiterun Home. then installed it, but then I could not buy any of the other Homes in the game when I got to the point where I could or should have been able too.

 

Always the same problem, The steward would go through the motions of selling me the home, but never any key, and never any money exchanged.

 

I could trash USLEEP, and instantly I could buy the Player home's. I could run the singular USKP patches, and have absolutely no Problems, But USLEEP totally Messed It all Up.

 

I have the legendary edition of the game. USLEEP just would not work for me, as far as I am concerned, it is Useless Junk.

 

It also forces me to run every DLC in the game, something I do not always do that, as I Quite often start a new game, and play Skyrim alone, then after while, I start adding the DLC's that I wish to play.

 

I wish I could run it as every one, Knowledgeable or just because every one else is doing it, always says.. OH! Get USLEEP don't try to play this game with Out it.

 

I have found it in my Honest Opinion to be Useless Junk.

Yep, USLEEP was the problem! Unfortunately the mod that I have always used on the non Special Edition of Skyrim that lets you choose how you start the game, Live Another Life, needs it to run. I wish they would fix USLEEP or make it so that mod doesn't need it.
