A proper economy is what it needs, saddle them sims with a dang mortgage when they move into their fancy houses.
Ohhh... an economy... that could be... hmmmm.... interesting. It would be kind of cool if you could do things to affect it - build up the city - build up the economy - although I suspect this would be straying in SimCity territory. Still... something to think about.
There is a mod over at Mod the Sims that I like. It's an Online Banking Mod. You get this little thingy in your iventory, and you can manage it from there.
Also, mortages and what not sound pretty cool, but I would rather stay away from a huge economic add to the game. Maybe influating prices and what not would be cool, but I personally wouldn't like to have to micro manage an economy. Sims 3 for me is about playing with Sims. Not an entire city.

While we're wishing... I'd like to see a mashup of SimCity and Sims - you could operate at either level - be the Mayor, or be the Sim. Or play both.
I think that Sims City is moving towards that point
