You guys are goofy. Step 1: Buy Plot... Step 2... Buy Houses (1 of each type for ease of sorting, imo, or groups of types for different goods if you're a true hoarder...) Now place the first house, and fill it up. Then put it into your backpack and place the second house... fill... place in backpack.../repeat with all houses until all of your stuff is neatly stored in a house that is in a bag... 1 room houses hold 250 'any' item... 3 room houses hold 300 'any' item. The only real difference is the rent price and the number of 'decoration' items... Crates can also be used in this way for 'Placeable' items... So 1 40 slot bag filled with houses can contain over 10,000 items... not sure if you can fill a house with crates and pull it up with the crates still inside because I have not quite lost the last shred of my sanity yet.
