Apartments!
"Look at that, an on-time launch for a change!
Apartments are now available in the following cities:
New York
London
Shanghai
Delhi
To purchase an apartment visit the real estate agency in the city you want to buy in. Apartments are quite expensive, and furnishing them is also costly, so you probably should wait if your short on funds.
There are two types of furniture that aren't yet working:
1) Study Furniture / Case File storage: These items will allow you to save case files, as in detective agencies, but this functionality is not yet finished.
2) Bookshelves: Bookshelves will eventually allow your guests to read books that you have collected (and gain the experience from doing so), but these are also currently incomplete.
Enjoy."
