Getting Housing is a Problem

[Shibi]

Sadly, it is how it is, and it won't change in the near future. So like grinding raid progression you need to get in there and just do it.

We did not expect the demand to be as bad as it was.

For weeks and weeks anyone who was placard clicking had known demand would be huge.

We got on at 8 and all housing was gone

The housing discords had spreadsheets that tracked the vacant properties, and those show you were wrong. And this is the thing... Most housing becomes available around 12.5 hours from the point it's vacant, 10 to 14 hours being the prime window. This means you could have come on - with your FC members - at 6pm your time and likely taken a property.

Best advice I can give is; join the housing sweep discord plus rope in your FC members to look three or four times each day, turn up to a placard around the 12 hour mark with as many FC people as you can and get to clicking for 30 to 45 minutes. The more FC members you can get clicking the greater your chance.
