I bought a house in goblet 10 hours after 4.1 launched on famfrit and there are still houses in all 3 of the original housing wards. If housing is something you need this bad just switch servers. Like SE has all these things set up for you to switch to low pop servers for free and they are adding more and more cross server play then ever.
Eventually though, this only brings the same exact issues to low pop servers. The housing system as a whole has some pretty big flaws that need addressed, for all server types, regardless of if there are open houses on low pop servers.
That, and I've been on Besaid/Balmung since launch. I don't think I should have to abandon my Free Company and all the friends I've made over the years just so I can nab a house.
