Back in Los Santos after the update, the game's not gonna spell everything out, so you've gotta watch for the nudge yourself. When you spawn in, keep your phone handy and stay alert for a message that quietly opens the door to Avi's new line; Once that text lands, check your map for the big "A" marker and head over to start it like a regular contact chain, no fancy hoops.
How the Avi missions actually flowThis isn't some single job you run once and forget. It's a small run of missions that feels a lot like older GTA Online pacing, in a good way. Here's the order: 1) setup mission one, 2) setup mission two, 3) setup mission three, 4) setup mission four, and then 5) the finale. The nice part is you're not hunting menus or refreshing a board. Finish one, and the next icon shows up, so you can just drive, fly, or fast travel over and keep momentum.
Payout talk and what players care aboutThe money's solid for the time you're putting in. The finale drops $525,000, and there's an extra Hazard Pay challenge layered on top if you want to push it. A lot of players instantly worry it's locked behind some pricey purchase, because GTA's done that before. But Avi's stuff isn't gated like that. You can be broke, fresh, and still run the full KnoWay chain. If you've got a couple friends, it's smoother, but it's not built like a giant heist prep spreadsheet either.
Michael's mission and the mansion gateMichael's "Home Sweet Home" is where the rules change. That one is tied to owning a mansion, full stop. Buy the property, watch the intro cutscene for your new place, and make sure you've cleared Avi's finale at least once. After that, drop back into free roam and don't just camp inside your mansion. Weirdly, hanging around there can make it feel like nothing's happening. Drive around, do a few quick errands, let the city breathe, and wait for Avi Schwarzman to call.
Getting the trigger to behaveThat call timing can be all over the place. Some players get it fast, others swear it takes ages, and it can feel random when you're just cruising and checking your phone every two minutes. For the latest guides and tips, follow rsvsr.
