How To Buy A House
Talk To Mr. & Mrs. Hudson In Tarrey Town

Collect 10 Sundelion and give them to Hudson
Sundelion Location
Sundelions can be collected at the Sokkala Sky Archipelago, which is located far above Tarrey Town. It can be reached from the Ulri Mountain Skyview Tower northwest of Tarrey Town. Other Sundelion blooms may be found on Ruins that have fallen from the Sky.
Pay 1,500 Rupees To Buy A House
You can buy your own home by talking to Rhondson after completing the Mattison's Independence quest. You will need 1,500 Rupees to purchase the house. Earn money by selling items at the store in Tarrey Town.
Secure A Travel Location At The Shrine
Since you cannot fast travel straight to your home, you should unlock the Rasitakiwak Shrine. This is right next to your home so you can use it as a fast travel point to get there. You do not need to clear the shrine, just wander to the entrance.
What Can You Do In The House?
Free Hearts Recovery
In the bedroom that you get when you build your house, you can recover your Hearts for free! This is useful not only for recovery, but also for changing the time.
Store Weapons, Bows, & Shields
Three items can be stored per room with the stand. Up to three of the same type can be set up, so a maximum of nine similar items can be stored. Basically, priority should be given to creating these stands!
Cook Food
Once a Cooking Pot is purchased and installed, you can cook Food within your house at any time. Food itself can be made in various locations, so building this should be lower in your priorities.
Keep A Horse
You can keep one Horse at your house. Since you have to come all the way back home once and travel is the main way to get around in the second half of the game, consider purchasing this when you can afford the Rupees.
Pray To The Goddess Statue
If you set up a Goddess Statue room, you can strengthen your Heart Container and Stamina Vessel at any time by simply coming back to your home. However, since there is a Goddess Statue nearby in Tarrey Town, purchasing one is a low priority.
Paintings Can Be Displayed
When you show a copy of a painting to Graneda, he will draw it up as a painting, and you can hang the painting in the room. This is just a feature to make the room more stylish.
