The problem is lack of supply relative to demand. More supply helps with the problem. The lynch pin is HOW MUCH supply will be made available, if enough is made available so supply can easily meet the demand the entire idea of a 'housing market' will disappear since house flipping is completely reliant on the idea there aren't enough houses to meet demand.Quote:

10-12-2017, 10:32 PMKalitzoI think if you relinquish a house a 1-24 hour randomized timer should be set. This would make it so house flippers couldn't sell. Or automatically generated wards when ward reaches max capacity. Or incorporate the FFXI system of instanced housing. It would also be a good idea to make 1 account 1 fc house and 1 personal house that is shared among alts.Quote:

Thank you all for signing the petition! I really think this was a huge part of it along with all the other threads about housing. It really showed the dev team how much people cared.

This isn't going to solve anything... the same kind of people wiht alts or interest to just to sell the plots for 300-600mil will somehow be the first ones there again.

10-16-2017, 07:33 PMScardonI certainly share a level of worry but they did say purchasing the new houses will be handled differently some how. I just hope it isn't an auction system because then places will just go to the super rich rather than super fast.Quote:

Suddenly decides to stop paying, bunch of plots get freed up and no server strain from empty plots. -
10-17-2017, 01:34 AMKalitzoYeah I would think that would be fine no use in having houses across different servers unless you play on 2 servers :DQuote:
