In The Sims 4 Dream Home Decorator, it’s important to decorate your client’s house based on their preferences, not yours. To do this, you need to understand what they like.
Start by interviewing your clients to learn about their tastes. However, they might not always give you clear answers, which can be frustrating. You might need to ask several questions to figure out what they want.
Happy clients will improve your professional reputation, while unhappy ones will lower your pay and reputation.
Talk to everyone in the house
Ask lots of questions about what they like and don’t like. The game gives you options to chat about different things related to decorating.
Don’t rush to send them away. If you do, you can’t ask them more questions later.
Keep them there and ask as many questions as you can about their decoration preferences.
If you can’t get anything useful from them in the interview, just ask about their favorite colors. That will give you a direction.
Always look at the job panel
It shows what your clients like and don’t like.
Check the job panel before making changes to make sure you’re doing what your clients want.
Follow their preferences and check if there are any limits on what you can change.
Get into your client’s mind
Use friendly interactions to learn more about what your clients like and don’t like. Remember, you won’t see these details on the job panel, so write them down.
Keep these details in mind when deciding how to decorate.
If you only go by what’s in the job panel, your clients might not be happy with the result.
Try to understand what your clients want. Forget about what you like. Even if you don’t like the final look, what matters is that your clients are happy.
Each job needs a personal touch. Base your decisions on what your clients want and what they can afford.
Consider things like their favorite music or hobbies when making decisions. Stick to décor and colors you know your clients will love.
Stay within their budget, try not to spend too much. If you don’t want budget to be a problem, sell everything in the room and start fresh. If you go over, just sell a few old items to balance it out.
Don’t forget to take photos before and after the makeover.
You won’t always have all the details
Sometimes, you won’t have enough information to make the best decisions.
For instance, your client might not tell you their favorite colors or what they like in terms of décor.
All you might know is that they like soccer. Sometimes, clients won’t even tell you which room they want you to redecorate.
If that happens, you can start with a smaller room, or just pick a room randomly and keep your fingers crossed.
Remember, happy clients will likely hire you again and pay you more.
Happy Simming!
