Linden Home is a new Premium account feature in the Second Life virtual world owned and managed by Linden Lab. We've provided it in the spirit of helping Residents own land, and it includes a ready-to-move-in home while belonging to a themed community.
 
===Introducing Linden Homes===
 
Linden Home regions are located in the new Nascera continent. In addition to [http://secondlife.com/support Support] access, a monthly Linden Dollar (L$) stipend, and 512m<sup>2</sup> land allocation without usage fees, '''Premium accounts now include Linden Homes!''' Use your included '''[[tier|tier (What is tier?)]]''' towards a Linden Home in one of our four themed communities. Receive land for free with the home you select, ready and waiting for you to move in!
 
Linden Homes are for residential use only and provide an opportunity for Premium account holders to own land and a home to gain home ownership experience.

===Linden Home qualifications===
 
Premium accounts with '''512m<sup>2</sup> available tier''' are qualified for Linden Home. (In addition, [[tier]] can be used in other situations, including buying land on the mainland or [[renting land]] on a private estate.) For example, if you have a new Premium account — you've just joined Second Life as a Premium account or upgraded from a Basic account — and haven't changed your land usage, then you have exactly 512m<sup>2</sup> of available tier.
