Safehouses in GTA V

As with previous Grand Theft Auto games, safehouses are available for protagonists Michael De Santa, Franklin Clinton, and Trevor Philips, with six different safehouses available throughout the state of San Andreas. The protagonists can change clothes, watch TV, drink alcohol, or take drugs while in the safehouse. Additionally, certain safehouses have unique features: either Michael or Trevor can play tennis with Amanda at the De Santa house, and Franklin can interact with Chop at his safehouses. The player can store one or two vehicles in the garage, depending on its size. The player can still save the game at a safehouse by sleeping in the bed, advancing time by 6 in-game hours if playing as Michael or Franklin and 12 hours if playing as Trevor; however, saving game progress at the safehouse is a deprecated feature with the introduction of quick saving on the smartphone. While in the safehouse, the player cannot equip a weapon; however, if the player is wanted by the police, the player can use weapons to defend himself, but certain functions of the safehouse are disabled if a weapon is discharged.

Trivia

  • All three protagonists change safehouses at least once during the game; however, Trevor's Sandy Shores trailer is the only safehouse which remains available while Trevor remains a playable character.
  • Franklin's Whispymound Drive safehouse can be accessed by any protagonist due to the patio windows in the kitchen and Franklin's bedroom being permanently open; however, neither Michael nor Trevor can use any the safehouse functions, and the safehouse is unavailable for Franklin until completing the Hotel Assassination mission.
