A player after fully paying off their home loan in New Horizons
This article is about the loan required to expand the player's house. For the house expansions themselves, see player house.

A home loan, also known as a debt or mortgage, is an amount of Bells that is required to pay off to purchase or expand a player's home. After the player pays off the loan once, their home will be expanded again and they will be given a new loan. Once the house is fully expanded, the player will usually get a reward for paying off the final loan.

In games prior to Animal Crossing: New Leaf, a portion of the initial home loan is automatically paid off after the player completes their part-time job at Tom Nook's store.

Appearances

In Doubutsu no Mori

In Doubutsu no Mori, Animal Crossing, and Doubutsu no Mori e+, the home loan can be paid off by speaking to Pelly or Phyllis at the post office. Additionally, in all three games, the player cannot deposit their Bells into their savings until their home loan is fully paid off, and fully paying off the home loan results in a statue of the player being placed outside the train station. The statue changes size and color based on the order each of the four players in the town pay it off: the first player to pay off their home loan receives a golden statue, the second player a silver statue, the third player a bronze statue, and the fourth player a jade statue.
