Can you sell flats in GTA Online?
In GTA Online you can buy a whole range of properties, but you can’t sell them. We tell you how you can still get rid of flats and the like.
GTA Online offers you numerous possibilities to get rid of your hard-earned money. From new weapons to cars to real estate. The latter usually serve the purpose of an investment: you buy an expensive luxury flat, for example, which you can use to unlock the heists of GTA Online to play.
But what happens if you accidentally buy the wrong property? Or you simply no longer like a flat, a garage or an arcade? Because it’s not that easy to sell real estate in GTA Online. We’ll tell you how you can buy real estate and get rid of it again to get back at least part of your investment.

How to buy real estate in GTA Online
But first, let’s get to the basics: Before you can get rid of real estate, you first have to own some. Once you’ve saved up enough money, you can use your laptop or your character’s mobile phone to open the browser in GTA Online.
You can get different properties from different websites. Here is a rough overview:
Dynasty 8 Real Estates: Apartments, luxury flats, garages, houses and stilted houses.
Dynasty 8 Executive: Offices
Maze Bank Foreclosures: Nightclubs, bases, bunkers, hangars, clubhouses, arcades, department stores
ArenaWar.tv: Arena workshop
Docktease: Yachts
Once you have chosen a property, simply select your preferred upgrades (if available) and complete the purchase. The estimated amount will then be deducted from your in-game account balance and you can immediately mark a waypoint on your map.
Mazebank Foreclosures is one of the most important places to get new properties in GTA Online. Here you can get arcades, hangars, nightclubs and more.

How to get rid of real estate in GTA Online
No, you can’t sell real estate in GTA Online in the classic sense. However, when you buy a new flat or a new garage, you have the option to trade in a property you own. As a rule, you will be refunded about half of the original purchase price.
All you have to do is select a new property and click through to the “Make a purchase” screen. If you now make the transaction, the game will automatically ask you whether you want to pay for an existing property.
Now complete the transaction to get rid of an old property in exchange for a new one.
To get rid of old properties in GTA Online, you have to buy new ones.
The more properties, the higher the cost
Most properties, such as the arcade, base or bunker, almost always serve a playful purpose that puts more GTA dollars in your pockets. However, before buying, you should always think carefully about whether you really need every property or whether you want to own several flats or garages, for example.
Because with each property, your daily maintenance and rental costs increase. These can amount to a few hundred to a few thousand GTA dollars and are usually only noticeable in total. So consider this before you build up a small real estate empire, because, as I said, you cannot sell your possessions, only trade them in.
