The last option is to change or add instances we zone in so we all can have a plot with no timers need.
It’s already been stated repeatedly why they probably do not have the outside programmed to count—what with the amount of people that can enter any given yard for any given house, how is the server supposed to identify that it’s the plot’s owner? This game is littered with the remnants of code that are over a decade old, and it wouldn’t surprise me if this code is the limitation here.

While yes, they can give you an in-game pop-up, you already receive multiple emails. I don’t know about you, but my email is all pushed to my phone and I check it daily. If you’re concerned about it going to spam, you can add the addresses to your address book, which should prevent that. There is also a Timers menu that shows up for you AND any tenants you may have discussing estate demolition.

I’m all for instanced housing. I’d rather have it as opposed to ward housing anyways. But the developers seem keen on it not being a thing in the foreseeable future.
