In some situations, Build mode as well as [[Buy mode]] may become disabled, such as during a [[fire]], [[burglar]]y, or other major event. This is done to prevent modifications to the lot that may impact or prevent a game event from occurring. After the event has ended, Build and Buy modes will be reactivated. Build mode is also disabled when traveling in (''World Adventures''). There is a [[Cheats/Gameplay|cheat]] given to prevent this in ''The Sims 3'', where there is a dialog notifying the event and the functions are disabled but not greyed out.

In general, build and buy modes are unavailable when on unowned [[community lot]]s, and the buttons will be greyed out. In ''The Sims 3'', however, clicking the Build or Buy buttons while away from the active household's home lot will bring the camera back to the home lot, and open Build or Buy mode there. If the household owns any additional lots, the camera will pan to the nearest modifiable lot from where it was originally moved away.
