When are new housing wards being added?

I don't know about other servers, but Malboro has been full for awhile now. I've got more than enough gil to buy a FC house, but there are no plots to do so.

From what I've gathered reading various posts, the wards of most servers have been full since August.

Supposedly patch 3.3 is when the ward expansion is taking place. I believe they were supposed to double the wards. When exactly patch 3.3 will hit is unknown at the moment, so keep at eye on the the ward listings for a price next to one of the houses every time you pass through until then.

I see.

Hopefully that's just three more months away...lol.

Most likely 3.3 as said above, but unless they do something about how many houses one account can hold, then Square-Enix will be just taking a poop on new/ non crafter players.
I have been saving and I should have enough for a medium plot by the time we get new wards, but since there is no limitation how many houses you can have on one account, most of the new plots will be grabbed by rich crafters on alts who already have more than one house.

I really hope they implement the moving feature with 3.3 tho I am saving for a medium plot atm but I have a small house and I really don't want to drop my small house first and hope I manage to snag a medium up before they gone.

edit- ah alts nvm

I'm a gatherer who has the money for a large house... I let my medium abandon after the first houses were reclaimed, which meant my house was reclaimed 45 days after the first reclamation. Although I lost 11m in that process, I worked hard to get the money for a large, and had the money a couple days after 3.2 hit. Seeing no large houses available is depressing, but I know 3.3 will bring more.

Since then, I've been stocking up on furni to put in the large house... when I get it. Ironically, this also means if Square Enix raises housing prices come 3.3, that means I'm kinda screwed unless I gather between now and 3.3. I currently sit on 86m.

3.3 is basically my endgame, seeing as gathering and housing are my main endgame activities, with raiding a secondary endgame activity. Either I get my large house, or I don't and I wait til they expand wards again.
