    Why? What are they going to do with the additional gil? Count it? Seriously, it's time SE took this issue on, head on, and dealt with it.

    Why? Because they already spent the gil on the house. in the millions of gil.....Nobody is going to surrender that like you want them to. Nobody just spends that much gil on a house and just throws it away by giving up the plot. Unless they were very charitable...and if they were, they wouldn't have bought the house to flip it in the first place. You have too much faith in them to think they'd eat the loss like that.

    If you spent gil on the plot, and gil on the house and gil on the furnishings, then you're using the actual home. I was referring to those who own multiple plots with the intent of reselling all but one of them by exploiting the system. If you as an account holder have multiple characters on a single server each of which owns a separate home and has furnished it, then it's different, but I was referring to speculators. That said, if they enforce one plot per account per server shared across all characters on that account/server, which I think they should; then they need to ensure that such players can choose which plot to keep, and be compensated in full for the plots they must relinquish, along with a transfer system of some kind to ensure they do not lose unique furnishings.

    Property speculators are one thing, players who make use of actual homes are an other. Unfortunately both are different facets of the issue with housing in this game.
