How do you get an apartment in GTA 6?
Rockstar hasn’t announced a way to get one, and it hasn’t said you can buy or rent a home at all. We won’t invent a menu or a price. Our page on whether you can buy houses in GTA 6 has the full picture.
What exists so far are homes tied to the story. Until Rockstar or the game says otherwise, treat any step-by-step you see as a guess.

Where do Jason and Lucia live?
Rockstar’s profile of Brian Heder says he lets Jason live at one of his properties without paying rent, provided Jason helps with local shakedowns. That is official, and it makes that home a favor, not a purchase. Separately, Rob Nelson of Rockstar North told Famitsu that the story starts in the Leonida Keys and that Jason’s first house, the one from the trailer, is there. That part is reported. See Jason’s safehouse.
An apartment also appears in An Extended Look. IGN’s list of details calls it Lucia’s apartment in one entry and Jason and Lucia’s in another, and Push Square describes Jason taking a beer from the fridge and watching TV while he waits for her. Rockstar hasn’t named it or said where it is. See Lucia’s apartment.
Will you move between homes during the story?
Reportedly, yes. In Famitsu’s interview, Nelson says the story runs in chapters and the characters’ safehouses move along with it, with the interior changing to a degree as you progress. He likens it to the camps of Red Dead Redemption 2. That comes from one interview, not from a feature list by Rockstar.
IGN reported that the two leads can share one safehouse, and that each character’s personal vehicles are kept at safehouses. Our safehouses guide collects what previews have described.

How did GTA Online and GTA IV handle apartments?
This is history, not a prediction. In GTA Online, GTABase says apartments and garages are bought through a real estate website inside the game, or at the For Sale sign outside a property. The 2008 GTA IV went the other way: Grand Theft Wiki says none of its five safehouses has to be bought, because each is unlocked by finishing certain missions, and Niko Bellic’s first is his cousin Roman’s apartment in Hove Beach.
Neither says anything about GTA 6. See GTA Online and GTA IV for the games themselves.
What will we check at launch?
On November 19 we’ll check whether any home can be bought, rented or upgraded, how you reach each one, and whether the apartment from An Extended Look is a permanent base. We’ll also check the garage side: Rockstar says its two named personal garages come with a weapon locker and a stash for stolen goods, and Nelson told Famitsu that garages can be bought around the map. See personal garages, and all named places under properties.
