Hey Yoshi, you said personal housing "will be far more affordable."

There is no resale value, once a house/plot is bought it can't be sold, you simply lose the gil by basically giving up the plot. This was mentioned in the patch notes when FC housing was first implemented months ago.

Although unreliable you could technically sell your plot's availability. Relinquishing your plot at a specific time while someone readies to purchase it.

That defeats the purpose for the ones buying, you'd wind up paying at least double the normal price just for a plot. Consider compensating the person(s) relinquishing their own plot and furnishings not to mention anything extra they'd want to charge on top of that plus paying for the plot for yourself/your FC plus the house. The only point in doing so would be to drain your own resources faster simply for the purpose of satisfying a need that can be sated simply by waiting until the next patch. Patience is a virtue for a reason.

Instant gratification is what moves the minds of the XXI century people.

And you have to just buy the plot, no need to build the house or anything, and yes, i can see people paying more than twice for THAT plot.

Instant gratification.....I love that, that's what's killing the IQ of the world, the mentality of "I don't care, I just want it now." Incoming Idiocracy sooner than 500 years from now, more like 50 years if that.

But I guess people will continue being stupid and impulsive simply for the fact that nothing and no one else matters, carry on morons and idiots of the planet, pray you don't take society down with you.

Edit: I forgot something, if a house isn't placed on the plot within I think 2 weeks or 30 days of purchase of the plot, the plot is forfeit and your gil is not reimbursed. So you'd have to sell it before you automatically lose the plot due to not putting a house on it within the time limit, or find someone to "sell" the plot to within the time limit.

I've seen rare items and melded items go for over 10 mill. Wouldn't be out of question for something as useful as a house (that allows for gardening, decoration, and other personal happiness) to sell for that much. 4 mill for the plot, 6 mill to the player, or even more. Especially if there are literally no plots left. Again, not reliable, but could definitely happen.

[Xine]

That just means that plots will be bought and left empty until they are sellable.

Not really worth the response but whatever, SE won't make plots sellable and they've given their reasons why in a post made months ago when FC housing was first released. So no....you can't sell housing plots to other players using this method, and the other one which I replied to here says why.
