I have been waiting to get home to buy the DLC so that I could get the land in Falkreath and of course I can't. All major bugs seem to affect me. If you kill the Jarl's steward as a part of the DB questline you cannot purchase the land. This is very upsetting for bethesda to have overlooked such a gamebreaking bug. How long do you think till its patched?

Uh oh.

Yes, you can, even if you kill the steward. I killed that guy as part of the DB questline months ago, and 2 hours ago, I bought the land in Falkreath.

Oh, I remember seeing her in a video of someone playing Hearthfire. Good to know.

Sorry, I should have said that I cannot do that Jarl's quests though. Because apparently when you kill the one steward he doesn't give you the quests as I have not done them nor received them and the female steward hasn't given me a response and I have yet to receive any letters.

Wouldn't work for me at first. Had to completely quit to main Xbox screen and then start the game again. Once I did that it was fine. Good luck...

Yeah, I just did it. Alas, nothing...

This may not pertain to you exactly, but this will also prevent you from getting the land. "Copied from another thread"


Hey Op, here's some help for you, I had the same problem, I did all the quests I could think of, and helped everyone in every way. (Spent the last 12 hours doing so) Then I found this out....

-Note that the starting quest for the Jarl to obtain a drink is a "radiant" quest that cannot be started if the Dragonborn is already on one of the following quests:

• Getting the book The Mirror for captain Aldis in Solitude
  
• Getting a Mammoth Tusk for Ysolda in Whiterun
  
• Getting the book Song of the Alchemists for Lami in Morthal
  
• Getting the book Night falls on Sentinel for Rustleif in Dawnstar
  
• Getting an Amulet of Arkay for Torbjorn Shatter-Shield in Windhelm

You CANNOT become Thane if one of these quests are currently active. You must complete any and all of these quests in order to get the Jarl to give you the radiant quest to begin getting land. Once I finished all of these quests, I was given the right quests from the Jarl to purchase land. And it only took 12 hours to figure it out...

Why, in God's name... Would they make getting a book for the Alchemist in Morthal, make you ineligible for Thaneship of Falkreath? NO one without the Internet would have figured that out, well, at least not me.

i wanted to get he pale house but i got falkreth first

Thank you NeferiousX you are a god amongst men. I have been trying to solve this problem for so long!

i am already thane and the quest does not start
