that last idea i like alot.

personally methinks it might be kinda foolish to actually rent instead of saving up to buy, seeing as the houses dont depreciate in value that much. but i do realize that part of your idea was to remove capital from circulation anyway.

house upgrades which could be stolen however....sweet idea.

if someone steals my spankin new 50 inch plasma (which maybe can add an extra couple points to happiness every refresh) know that im coming after you with a vengence son

the idea might be tough to implement well tho
