More houses?

[Apolla]

(Sorry if this has already been answered. If it has I couldn't find it)
So I finally got enough gil for a small plot. I don't need/want anything bigger, it's just too much space. However, all the small plots are taken. Is there any chance they'll be adding more? Or am I SoL?

Even your subdivisions are full? That seems odd as Exodus is the largest NA server and we have plenty of space available, maybe not in the ward/district you want but there are still quite a few.

Every single house in every subdivision is gone on Balmung. They've been for quite some time.

Yes, as far as smalls are concerned. Even the mediums are starting to go.

I was actually about to make a thread concerning this. Has there been any news on getting more wards?

I thought they said we'd have enough with the subdivisions and they didn't see a need to add more housing after this, since they doubled the number of plots. Clearly, that's not the case, but I thought that's what they said.

There are still some smalls on my server last I checked, but I think they were only available in Ul'dah, which is arguably the least desirable housing district (has the most empty space on my server by far - probably because it's relatively annoying to navigate).

On my server every single plot in every ward is taken.

They've stated that the feel that the number of housing is sufficient at the moment, which is total bollocks. However, we're stuck waiting anyways because the housing team is working on the Golden Saucer. And I believe they said that instead of focusing on adding more wards, they are going to improve housing instead. So...congrats to the people that own housing and get to enjoy said updates.

I've googled but couldn't find it, is there a website that displays available plots by server and location?

Not that I know of, but to check your own server, go to the Aetheryte in one of the main cities and check the Residential Aethernet. You can browse through the wards and subdivisions for that city to see who owns which house (and if they are an individual or FC, and if the house is open or closed to the public) and which ones are up for sale (and for how much).


By the by - what happens when someone transfers to a new server? Does their house go back on the market, or does it remain locked out? Or can you not transfer without destroying and relinquishing your house?
