Bu...but we should be able to buy a house now!

Never mind the fact that, if people could just buy a house instantly, content the developers have spent a staggering amount of time on (go check how many fences, walls, windows, roofs, furniture, etc. there are) would be blown through in a couple of weeks.

You're right though, they'll probably be changing it pretty soon because, shock horror, 2.1 is adding a whole new avenue to the games economy! Anyone who actually read the patch notice and saw how many Housing related materials (quite literally bricks and mortar) there are should be aware of that. How will individual servers price these materials? They don't know yet, they can't know yet, so what do they do? Overprice Housing. People with ridiculous amounts of Gil from 1.0 finally blow through it, everyone and their grandmother doesn't blow through the content instantly, and when the economies for these new materials settle, they can take a step back and reevaluate the cost based on that.
