This article talks about the services provided by the Concierge team for your Estate or Private Region related to renaming or moving your Private Region around inworld.

Can I rename my Private Region?

Yes. There is a US$50 charge to rename your island. The new name must fall under the Guidelines for Private Region Naming.

To get the process started, submit a support ticket stating that you would like to change the name, and that you accept the fee.

Private Region names are granted at the sole discretion of Linden Lab.

Can I move my Private Region?

Yes. We won't be able to move your Private Regionto a specific location; however, we do offer Private Region moves in order to attach your Private Region to another Private Region you own, or someone else's Private Region.

To move your Private Region in order to attach it to another, both you and the other Private Region owner must submit a support ticket confirming that you wish for your Estates to be attached, and which sides (i.e. "I want my Private Region attached to the west side of Torley's Island."). Note that your Private Region cannot be rotated, so what is currently north will always be north. There is a $150 charge to move a Private Region. This fee is charged per Private Region, for any movement.

Note: Note: Moving your Private Region will cause links made from the Picks tab of the Profile window to break.

Landmarks will continue to function after a move, but home locations may need to be reset. The map may take several hours to update with the new Private Region location.

Can I transfer my Estate to someone else?

Yes; see our Guide to Estate Transfers.

What's a "rollback"? Someone mentioned this to me.

Find out what a "rollback" is actually about in our Estate Autosaves and Restores guide.

Who should I contact if I have any questions or additional request for my Estate?

Submit a support ticket of the Region Issues type.
