Estate agent

An estate agent is a building placed on a colonized island. It is used for shoppe upgrades and downgrades and is generally owned and managed by the flag governing the island. After an island is fully colonized, the estate agent is rarely used. It is unique in that it is the only building that acts as both a shoppe and an infrastructure building.

It also requires 600 hours of basic labor, 100 hours of skilled labor, and 100 hours of expert labor to complete construction. It cannot be built before two bazaars have been constructed.
