{{Main|Game Guide: Asking Sims to move in}}

Households are moved into a residential lot from the [[Family bin]], [[Lots and Houses bin]], Manage Worlds{{Vgversion|TS4}} or the [[The Sims 4 Gallery|The Gallery]]{{Vgversion|TS4}} making it available for play. A household can be moved into an unoccupied or occupied lot, thus merging the two households.

 

Until ''[[The Sims 2: University]]'', Sims in the family bin could not be combined with other households. This feature allows teens who are becoming young adults so they can go to college to join an existing (non-Greek) household, and allows graduates to do things such as re-join their families or form households with friends from college.

A playable sim can invite a non-playable sim to join the household as their member. Both, the playable sim and npc sim or stray animal, must have a certain relationship score for such interaction to be available. In ''The Sims 2'', the playable Sim can "'''Propose..'''" a towny or non-playable character Sim to "'''Move in'''", or just "'''Adopt'''" If instead it happens to be a stray dog or a stray cat. In ''The Sims 3'', the interaction is presented as '''''''Ask to move in"'''''.

 

 

Sims that become of a member of the household, may or may not bring a certain sum of funds with them. Players should note that Townies who become playable after moving into, or marrying into, a household will have their memories replaced with a standard CAS history. If the ''University'' expansion is installed, this will include a memory of going to college, even if they did not.
