Ok, so you’ve got your crew and you’re ready to collect a big score. Well, something you’ll need before being able to do any heist is an apartment with a heist room.

The leader of the heist will need to be at least level 12 before you can begin.

Not every apartment you can purchase in GTA Online has a heist room so here is a list below of purchasable properties that include one.

You can purchase properties by clicking up on the D-pad to pull up your cellphone. Go to the browser and select Maze Bank Foreclosures. From there you can purchase any property you have the money for:

  • Del Perro Heights, Apartment 7 – $200,000 (Del Perro)

These properties will allow players to invite their crew over to begin a heist. Simply go to the heist room and select from the available options to begin the setup for the mission.

The Doomsday Heist

The Doomsday Heist is one of two heists in GTA Online that requires a different building to complete the heist. You’ll need to purchase a facility in order to have access to it.

Facilities can be purchased just like any other property in GTA Online by going to the Maze Bank Foreclosures website on your cellphone.

  • Paleto Bay – $1,250,000
  • Mount Gordo – $1,465,000
  • Sandy Shores – $2,740,000

  • Land Act Reservoir – $2,950,000

Once you have purchased one of these you will have access to the Doomsday Heist and can invite your squad as normal.

The Diamond Casino Heist

Similar to the Doomsday Heist you’ll need to purchase a separate building to have access to this heist. After getting a call from Lester and meeting him in the park you’ll be told you need to purchase an arcade.

Here is a list of purchasable arcades in GTA Online.

  • Warehouse – $2,135,000
  • Videogeddon – $1,875,000
  • Eight Bit – $2,530,000
  • Insert Coin – $2,345,000

  • Pixel Pete’s – $1,235,000

After obtaining one of the arcades listed above you’ll be sent on a few missions to recover arcade cabinets to fix it up. Then you will have to go stake out the Diamond Casino to get some intel.

After that, you’ll be all ready to start the Diamond Casino heist with your friends.

Well, that’s everything you need to know about how to start a heist in GTA Online. For more tips, tricks, and guides be sure to check out Twinfinite.
