BitLife Around the Block Challenge Guide

Below are the tasks you will have to finish for the Around the Block challenge in BitLife:

  • Be born a female in Illinois
  • Rent out 15+ homes
  • Have at least one baby with 10+ tenants
  • Break up with 5+ tenants
  • Murder a spouse via a drive-by

Landlord Expansion Pack Requirement

Before planning your strategy for completing this challenge, make sure you have BitLife’s Landlord Expansion Pack. With this, you can rent homes and have romantic relationships with tenants! In other words, you’ll have to spend real money to purchase this expansion through BitLife’s marketplace in the main menu and participate in the challenge.

If you already have the Landlord Expansion, you can move on to the rest of this post!

How to Be Born a Female in Illinois in BitLife

Once you have the Landlord pack, create a female character whose starting country is the United States. From here, when you pick your starting place, choose Chicago. Chicago is a popular city in Illinois, and will automatically complete the first task once your character is born!

The picture below shows the country and place options I chose when starting this challenge, and I can confirm that they worked!

Renting Out Homes

As you age up your character, you’ll want to find various ways to make money to afford some houses. How you do this is entirely up to you, but if you want some tips on how to get there, be sure to check out how to get rich in BitLife. My go-to is becoming a famous singer or actor, but you can pick all kinds of money-making methods.

Once you have money saved up, start buying and renting out properties! You can purchase houses through Activities > Shopping > Real Estate, and from there, head into your Assets menu to view them.

In Assets, you’ll find your homes, which you can select to see their property management options. Pick Rent and find some tenants to fill your houses! You’ll have to do this 15 times to finish the second task!

Relationships with Tenants in BitLife

After you find some tenants, you can return to your Properties menu and find them. Here, you can select a tenant and interact with them. These interactions are the same as a regular friend, with options like befriending, gifting and asking out. For this challenge, in particular, there are three things you want to do:

  • Select Hook up and have one baby with at least ten tenants for the third task
  • Ask out at least five tenants
  • Break up with those five tenants

The image below shows some interaction options you’ll find for a tenant you’re married to. However, even if your character is not in a relationship, you can still converse, compliment and give gifts!

Along the way, you’ll also have to get married! After getting married, head into Activities > Crime > Murder and choose your partner as the victim and Drive-by as the method. Once you successfully pull it off, you’ll knock out the final task and complete the Around the Block BitLife challenge!
