WoW Housing: Best Tips Guide
1. Getting Started: Your First House
Starter Decors: You get a basic kit with 1–2 of each decor item. It won’t be much—plan to collect more!
2. Budget System & Leveling
Decor Budgets: Placing more decors and rooms costs budget.
House Leveling: Your house has its own XP and levels. Higher levels = bigger budgets for more decors and rooms.
How to Level Up: Every new decor you unlock gives your house XP. The more decor you farm, the faster you level up.
3. What To Do First?
Before Decorating: Focus on unlocking and farming as many decors as possible.
4. Eight Ways to Unlock New Decors
Achievements
Some decors unlock from achievements.
Use the "Home Bound" addon to track your progress.
Every achievement decor is added to your Decor Catalog.
Reputation & Zone Quests
Certain vendors require specific reputations or questlines to unlock their decors.
"Home Bound" addon also helps track quest progress.
Neighborhood Vendors
5 vendors for Horde, 5 for Alliance, found in neighborhood villages.
No requirements: just buy!
Each zone also has 2 smuggler vendors with extra decors.
Weekly Neighborhood Quest
NPC “The Last Architect” in the village gives a weekly quest (find a clue/treasure) that rewards a decor.
Endeavour Vendor
Like the Trading Post: complete tasks to earn points and coupons.
Exchange these for special decors at the Endeavour Vendor.
Crafting
Many decors can be crafted (or bought via Auction House or Crafting Orders).
Boss Encounters
26 bosses drop unique decors (possibly per difficulty—unconfirmed).
Group runs mean rolling for loot; can also drop in follower dungeons.
Store
Some decors are sold in the Blizzard in-game shop for “hearthseel” (real-money currency).
5. Getting More of a Decor
To get multiples of a decor you’ve unlocked, visit the vendors tied to that achievement, quest, reputation, or endeavor.
Find exact vendor locations and decor unlocks at https://housing.wowdb.com—use the search or achievement tabs, and filter by expansion.
