What Happens to Your House While You Move?

Meanwhile, however, your home will stay in its original location.

Other than Resident Services, you’re free to find new sites for every building on the island.

It is a little more expensive to move the museum, stores, or neighbors' homes.

However, Tom Nook will charge you 50,000 Bells for this service.

From there, the relocation process is the same as it is for your house.
