To purchase a manor you'll need to runto one of the manor areas and look 
around for an open piece of land.

Manor areas are found at:
runto manormount
runto manorwoods
runto manorville
runto manorsea

Don't be fooled when you runto the area and see an open room near the 
beginning. Look at the room and you'll probably see an object on the 
ground like this:
(M) A wooden sign is sticking out from the snow. 
If you 'look sign' you'll notice that this spot is only for players who 
have a land deed. Land deeds are quite expensive and you still have to pay 
for a manor on top of the land deed price. As a newbie, don't consider 
it.

Once you runto the manor area, type 'look vacancies' in the first room. An 
imm will have posted the speedwalk to a section of the area that has many 
vacant spots. If you are standing on a room and it's not an indoors sector 
[ ] room, then it's probably somewhere you can build a porch. Porches can 
be built north, east, west, up or down from the room you're standing at. 
You CANNOT build SOUTH and you cannot build a porch on top of someone 
else's porch.

At this point you can type 'who imm' to look for a visible imm, then send 
them a tell to get the room's vnum. If an imm isn't visible you can place 
a pet in your target room and hunt it from the beginning of the area for 
the speedwalk.

To create your upgrade note go to:  http://bit.ly/aard_manors

Use the dropdown menu to choose 'Purchase Manor'. Type the manor vnum into 
the first open box, then choose your porch direction. Next fill out the 
porch/manor names and descriptions if you want to. If you don't want to 
choose your descriptions now, then don't fill them in. Your first set of 
descriptions is FREE FOREVER. Click on 'generate note' at the bottom of 
the screen. Click on the 0 for tier 0, then click on "I'm done" when it 
appears at the bottom of the screen. Now you can highlight your entire 
note and copy it. Switch back to your Aardwolf screen and type 'forum 
upgrades', then type 'note write imm' and finally paste your upgrade and 
post!
