You need to change the zoning to apartment base, not apartment sublot.

oh, i forgot to say that the apartment i build, each unit have a garage and each unit is seprate, it similar to the Main Street Mobile Homes in AL.

When i try to change the zoning to apartment base it show a message that it invalid..
when i try to change the zoning to apartment sublot it disappear in the neighborhood.

You get the invalid message because something isn't right in the building that's preventing it from being an apartment.  Is your garage attached to the apartment and have no other exit to the outside?  Do you have a back door that leads to a fenced in area?  Does the back door lead to a deck that isn't enclosed by a fence?  Elevators don't work inside of the rented units, but they do in the common area.

I had that problem when I had a door that went to the garage, after I removed the door so that the garage was by its itty bitty self and the only other door besides the apartment door only led to a 100% closed in balcony did I not get any errors and were I able to use the apartmentbase cheat successfully. Hope this helps you
