Since you just bought a house you'll have to pay that same cost again if you want to transfer or more if you want to upgrade.
Personal housing won't be available for purchase right away when SE adds the new wards. Only free companies will initially be able to purchase plots so OP was lucky to acquire a house before the patch. There is no guarantee he would be able to obtain one later.
