I'm not actually opposed to creating a housing ward where needed. To be honest there should be a automatic process that opens 1 ward for every 3 that are "full"; those wards should ALWAYS be private homes ONLY to avoid exploitative sub farms and house sales. The wards will not grow infinitely because the servers do have population caps anyways - so if Balmung is filling up it would add supply on BALMUNG as needed.

As for Mateus I just bid on a private with 0 bids.

It's the first day of bidding, check back in a week for Mateus. And yes. LOTRO had that EXACT system back in 2010.

Forgive me if my understanding is incorrect but I don't think that should ever be a solution. That would lead to a situation where every one would just pile into a single server and would leads to even worse server instability and congestion no?

There's a reason why SE has rolled out more new worlds and for players who really want to own a house, they can roll a character on the new worlds as there's little to zero competition. Having said that, I am personally on Balmung itself and I've already made my peace with it being housing savage compared to other new worlds. I've also created alts on OCE previously to experience housing where there are literally still several empty wards right now even one year into the creation of OCE data center.

No worries.

Servers have population caps - so eventually your server becomes unable to recieve new players; I am assuming this cap goes in place before the server hits critcal mass. Ironically I do a lot of work on the other foreign DC's so I realize the scarcity is not a widespread issue; its on a few select cases and thats why I mention there is actually probably somewhat of a overabundance.

Blue Berries? or Black berries?

The housing system is incredibly disheartening, especilly on Balmung and crystal as a whole.
