I would say yes and no, some servers it was fine but on the popular / legacy /high pop it was a failure again, as I said in another forum post there is nothing SE can do to remedy this it is and always will be a problem same reason why we have inventory issues for Omni crafters and glamour system which is a mess. As much as I also wanted a house the time I came back from work 17:00 it was all gone. Such is the way of things and I can guarantee you that next time will be the same thing, there are too many players to housing ratio that is not even including the scum flippers etc.
