Housing should be account bound....

Not if the pricing adjustment makes it unprofitable to flip. There might be the occasional FC plus house sale, but there's quite a bit of hassle on both sides for those.

Or, they could just allow actual house selling so that there would be a net discount to the person buying. Instead of having to pay the seller then full price for the lot, you could just buy the plot directly from the player (maybe even keep the furnishings as some can't be taken back). Yes, that would raise the price, but it would also allow for people to buy/sell nice homes as well. I know a lot of people that just like decorating houses. So why not allow them to buy a house, decorate it, then sell it off so they can go decorate another for someone else?

That's not a net discount, it's rubbing peters to pay Paul. On top of not fixing anything, it pushes housing further into the wrong direction.

The game cost of housing is already trivial. If housing is going to remain as limited as it is now, then the prices should reflect the economy.
