Harry Snivel

"Harry does triple duty as landlord for all three apartments (all rent payments go to Harry), the repo man, and villain for three of the districts." - excerpt from The Urbz: Sims in the City Official Prima Guide

Harry Snivel is a Repo-man and landlord in The Urbz: Sims in the City for consoles. Most of the Sims fear him. Harry is also one of the three main villains.

As landlord, Harry must be paid rent every two days for any apartment your Urb inhabits. On rent day, Harry calls for the rent via a dialog box; you can pay him on the spot or refuse (if you don’t have the cash). The next time your Urb returns to your apartment, however, Harry is waiting to give you one last opportunity to pony up the cash. If rent is due, make sure you have enough dough before returning to any apartment. If you encounter Harry at the apartment and still refuse to pay (or can’t pay) your debt, he repossesses objects of approximately equivalent value. If there isn’t enough value in your home’s repossessable objects, he returns in a couple of days for the amount still owed (in addition to the next installment of rent).

Rental Payments

 * 98th Ave, 3rd Floor - §300
 * Blankwood Towers - §1000
 * Darius' Penthouse - §2400

You take on the bills for a new apartment when you unlock it, regardless of when (or if) you ever visit or move into it.

There is a way to stop Harry Snivel taking the Urbz's stuff. The player can put all belongings into the inventory, and after a moment he will say, "You don't even have enough items to pay the rent!"

To defeat him, the player needs to use a Power Social on him whenever he is present in one of the districts. Then he will say "I am so embarrassed! I'm never setting foot on this district again!" and leave.
