Hearthfire jarl glitching maybe please help?

Post » Thu Sep 19, 2013 12:41 pm

I made it my objective to get all the thanehoods I could without completing the main quest line. I have the Hearthfire expansion so I can do this for the three build-your-own-houses that came with that addon. I had no problems at all getting a house plot and thane status in Dawnstar and Falkreath. I went for my last house to obtain, Windstad Manor, from Jarl Idgrod Ravencrone. I completed the child ghost quest and killed vampires. Then I got the quest to appease 3 townsfolk. I made three townies happy. I got Thanehood and a housecarl! AT NO POINT DID SHE EVER OFFER TO ME TO BUY LAND to build a home. My housecarl, Valdmar, acted like he was going to walk out the door then changed and sat in a seat. Who knows where he is now?

I can't find anything on this type of "glitch?" What do I do?

DId you try just talking to her Steward / husband, Aslfur? He's the one you buy it from. Even if the Jarl hasn't mentioned it, he may sell it to you.

Nvm. I missed talking to her husband because he was behind the door acting like an irritating body guard. For some torturous reason he, and not his Jarl wife, passes out property. Arrrrgh.

Jarls never sell property; many had new lines added with Hearthfire to mention the new land available, but Idgrod's actress could not be committed again, so it's up to you to speak to her steward to purchase land once she likes you enough to allow it.
