Housing Ideas and Feature Requests

[Chroma_Grey]

I am part of a very casual FC, but we have spent some time saving money and want to move to a larger house (size large as opposed to small). Now that more housing will become available in 3.3, we now find ourselves in a quandary. Three major points of concern when moving come to mind.

1.- There are several members of our FC that have been inactive for a couple months, but they are the type that show up when major updates happen. We don't want to kick them from our FC (since being a casual FC we are understanding), but they have furniture in their private rooms and if I understand correctly we can't move until their stuff is gone or they are gone. Is there any chance of implementing either a direct transfer of private rooms from the old house to the new house, or have a 'retainer' of sorts that will keep a hold of any transferable furniture until they next log in and can place it in their private room again?

2.- There is the same sort of problem with the chocobos (if I understand correctly). Is there any chance of getting the chocobo returned to the owner when we move or have them be unavailable until another chocobo stable is on the new plot? (Theoretically having some housing agent keep care of the chocobo until the stable is ready.)

3.- Is there also a chance of getting an additional retainer or FC chest whose sole purpose is to move furniture from one plot/house to the other plot/house (maybe by making them available only for the 24 hours the house was first purchased)? Inventory in this game has always been an issue for some of us crafting types. Trying to move too is just troublesome.

Those are the three main points my casual FC wanted me to cover/post on this forum. Part of our perk as a FC is to cater to some of those that can't always play every month. With the housing market being what it is, plots of land will sell out quick. Any chance of getting some of these ideas done?

There's been no real info on moving atm, but they said they were looking into implementing something for moving houses after 3.4 (estimated using patch release averages as being after september). So until then you can obliterate the fc house, have some furniture/all rooms/all airships destroyed and have everyone pay another 300k per room at the new house. Another option is to make a 2nd FC, rank it up to 6 before the patch and buy the large house with that FC, then gradually let people switch over. This still requires them to pay another 300k to switch over and destroys furniture that can't be removed, but it gives them time.
