I was thinking the same thing, there was something like that placed in the game last spring. Because I remember people complaining on the forums about it. I don't remember the time period, or how it translates to 100% personal housing vs, a defunct FC's house.

If someone 'hardly ever' crafts or gathers, I don't think they're the target demographic for housing. The garden's going to be pretty empty anyway with soil/seeds to plant most of which requires a high level gatherer or lots and lots of gil. There's a 300k FC personal room option now which is within reach of most players who accrue gil casually vs. putting in significant effort at it to be able to purchase bigger rewards. If someone is worried about outlayng that much cash and losing it due to FC issues they should reevaluate their choice of FC.

My view is- as long as I'm a subscriber in this game, I didn't rent my house, I bought it.
