Can you imagine if an FC couldn't buy their first house due to some members already being at their 2-house cap on that server? I feel like I'm catastrophizing here, but given SE's track record with housing... who knows!?!?
The translation I was watching noted that they specifically mentioned it does apply to all members of the fc.

If it didn't it'd make it easy enough to cycle through and get a bunch of houses on one account (you'd just get friends to set up the fc and then transfer leadership once the house is bought) which would only reduce the multiple house ownership potential down to 9 from 16 and would make it more difficult, but not impossible, for people trying to do it solo.

It's realistically what's happening already just with one extra step and needing to keep the other members in til you get the house.
