Even finding is simple, any transaction or sum of transaction from and to in X amount of time will trigger a red flag to the GM. For housing and FC - any leadership change in the FC with less than X accounts (not characters) will trigger a red flag. Then a GM can check why two people who never played together suddenly decided to replace places, e.g. why someone gave you a FC with the house after you freshly joined his FC. GM have so many tricky question to ask and dont forget the pressure for a permanent ban is on the buyer. He can lose everything, the FC, house, several years old account... let see who is willing to risk.
    I read your post. It has been shown that banning players does little to modify their behavior. So banning will have absolutely no effect other than on those who follow the rules anyway. You know keeping an honest person honest. Assuming SE could find a 100% way to confirm that the house was an RMT resale, which they can't, they don't publish players who are banned so has no deterrence effect for the population at large. There is no such thing as a permanent ban. All a player has to do it create a new account and if they were willing to deal with RMT once would likely buy jump potion and use RMT to replace a lot of what they lost. Again the only way to stop RMT and unethical reselling is to remove the manufactured demand by having unlimited housing. All of these things like RNG timer, adding more wards and restricting ownership are makeshift ways for SE to avoid having to admit that their housing system design is a failure.
