Houses and relocating

[Mikki]

The system is made that way in order to avoid house reselling and it works as intended. Still there is the FC housing resell going on, dunno how it can be fixed, tho'.

It would still avoid house reselling as you can't be guaranteed the plot. You would have to wait 24 hours, giving other people a chance to notice the house. You'll know the approximate time it will come up but so will everyone else who is interested in it. Would you want to buy a house from a reseller knowing that you have just as much of a chance to buy that house as the other 5 people who notice the house available and show up when it says it's going to be released? I wouldn't.

The problem is when the house can be purchased IMMEDIATELY, because you can release it and buy it up before a single person gets a chance to even notice it's up for sale. In my suggestion, at least other people have a fighting chance to get a house that's released without having to sit there, wasting their entire day spam checking the board.

Or better yet. Add larger apartments and let said apartments be used by free companies.

This is also a good solution. Bigger apartments would make a lot of people happy. Still no clue why SE won't do this - the ONLY reason most people don't like apartments is because it's so pathetically small in comparison to what you can get from a house. Even just a small is twice the size. Pretty ridiculous.

That works only in theory. But it seems there is people that did found methods for bypass the fair chance and get what they want. New wards opening is a good example, even you are the first to login and run to the house, you find that already bought. Don't ask me how they are able do that, I don't know. But a fixed timer helps just those people and I prefer a random hidden timer.
