The demand for houses is too high and stock is too low... then what?...

Well.... what about paying real money to keep your home? Not as much as a month's subscription but somewhere in between to show that you're still interested in keeping your home without playing the game. At least that way the inactive players continue to contribute something to the game.

Edit:
People misunderstood. I am talking about a slightly cheaper alternative to maintaining house ownership with an inactive account without resubscribing to the game for a whole month or more.

There's a super small tax rate on the market board that no one seems to have been mentioning much. Why not have something like that take effect on people who disapear for a trillion years? Or perhaps crysta or something. There has already been talk that we can't have infinite stock of plots. Why do people who still pay their subscription have to feel the negative effect of other people not paying their subscription anymore?

Not to mention that private housing is practically a gold mine for RMT asociated accounts who can manage to get a hold on them.
