Unfortunately, that's a consequence paid for choosing a congested world (and data center) for your home world. I doubt that SE will ever change how they handle the ward system to accommodate the congested worlds because they want players to stop choosing those worlds.

Housing is available. Your problem is that you aren't choosing to go to where it is.

It's not hard to get a house if you transfer to Dynamis. There are so many available houses on the 4 new worlds right now including larges. You would still be able to use data center travel to play with your friends on Gilgamesh and Aether whether you go there or they came to you on Dynamis.

I know many players feel they shouldn't have to transfer but that doesn't change the current situation. If you want a house that badly, then either transfer to where they are or create a new character on those worlds. You can get a new character purchase eligible very quickly.

- Complete MSQ up through the quest Sylph Management. This allows you to unlock retainers, Grand Company and jobs.

- Gain rank in the Grand Company you chose. GC Hunting Log Rank 1 entries plus unlocking PvP will give you enough seals to get to Corporal. You can get to Sgt. 2nd Class through a combination of GC leves, FATEs, and repeating Leveling Roulette as AIN.

- Once you reach Sgt. 2nd Class, Expert Deliveies will get the rest of the seals you'll need to rank up. There are plenty of cheap "greens" on the marketboards across the NA data centers if you don't have a max crafter that can make them cheap and quickly (you'll get the same number of seals whether NQ or HQ). Then you just need to complete the GC Hunting Log Rank 2 along with your Grand Companies quests to complete Dzemael Darkhold and Aurum Vale.

Working on the GC rank should get your character to level 50 without a problem with Road to 80 in effect on a New World as long as you keep up with your job quests and class Hunting log. I just did the process with a new character I created on Cuchulainn last Friday afternoon and was ready to bid Saturday night. My alt turned 50 just before I got to Dzemael Darkhold.

Again, houses are there for the taking on Dynamis. You just have to be willing to do what's needed to get one.

If you're not willing, well... good luck in your future lottery attempts on a congested world.
