Reasonable prices file provided by Apoapse:
I hope you're doing well! This is Apoapse, a long-time TES modder. I'm just writing to share my personal edit of your House Upgrades mod, which tries to be a bit more challenging without upsetting a quasi-vanilla balance:
-
[]2x prices for normal house upgrades
[
]5x prices for DLC houses (because even if you can save a castle from bandits, you're still trying to upgrade a castle) - 10x price for Spellmaking/Enchanting altars (which seems believable within the setting, considering only the Arcane University has them otherwise)
This mod increases the cost of house upgrades in Skyrim, making them more expensive but with reasonable prices. It's a simple economy tweak for players who want a more challenging financial progression. With 41 endorsements and recent updates, it's a niche but functional choice.
✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Tightens the economy without going overboard—prices are 'reasonable' so you won't need a million septims
- Recent update (May 2025) means it's likely still compatible with current setups
- Lightweight and focused—does exactly what it says, no bloat
⚠️ Cons
- Small following (41 endorsements) so you're in a niche crowd
- Only affects house upgrade costs—if you wanted broader economy changes, this won't cut it
- Could conflict with other mods that alter house prices or vendor gold, so watch your load order
For Skyrim players who find house upgrades too cheap and want a bit more financial grind without overhauling the whole economy. If you're a completionist who buys every home, this adds a layer of challenge. Skip if you prefer cheaper building or want more comprehensive economic changes.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Place this mod low in your load order to avoid conflicts with other economy mods
- If you use a mod manager, enable it after all other house-related mods for best results
- Check the mod page for any patches if you use popular house overhaul mods
