Please implement properity tax

[Zojha]

No, just no. Go home, your drunk.

Heh. Implying he "has" a home...

[SundayTrash]

I do, and guess what, through MY hard work alone I bought my FC a small home, and through MY hard work alone, I bought myself a home in a different city-state, after reclamation. Moral of the story? Work hard. Get what you want. Don't try to take away from those of us that have put in the effort to make the money just because you didn't do so. I guarantee you wouldn't have this "idea" if you had put the work in for yourself to have been able to buy one either from another player or reclamation.

Looks to me like you have all your crafts at 50+, so why not take some time, figure out what's selling on your market, and make some gil, then buy a house off another player?

The feel is different between a low and high pop server. The house were literally all gone within less than 5 min, and ppl then are reselling it for 100+ mil for a small on PF.

Before moving to Siren, I was on Balmung, and owned a medium private house there, server pop really isn't an excuse. If you want it bad enough that you think it's fair to ask for something like this, then you should want it bad enough to do whatever it took to get yourself it, without hurting the rest of us.

Me and my brother did not camp by a house for 6 hours each (12 hours overall)(we now share the house) On christmas day just to be landed with a tax D:
That being said, we are never selling this house. Plus it removes so much gil from the economy. 4-5mil is gone every time someone destroys a small house on behemoth.

I don't have any crafting classes so it literally took months and months to earn enough money to buy the house, let alone decorate it. I am broke right now, I don't want no tax T^T

Besides you are already paying an irl tax for a house, the FFXIV subscription fee. If you don't update your subscription every 45 days, and enter the house, you lose the house.

Wait a minute. Not to derail this grand thread but how do you not pay property taxes in the real world? Different country? Here in America everyone who owns a house pays property tax. You could have your house paid off for 50 years and as soon as you miss your property tax payment the government will take your house. We are all just renting from the government.

I live in the UK. We have a Council Tax, which pays for local services, but that's not based on the property (directly) as everyone of working age pays it - even if you're living with parents or renting. The amount to pay is based upon the house value band but isn't a "property tax" in the way the OP wants.

[ShadowYomi]

With what the op is suggesting why not use the potential property tax Gill and just pay someone to relinquish their land.

[Elim]

Come at me bro. Tack on those taxes.

The taxes will only discourage the majority of people in the game, the ones who can barely afford a small house. You'll be making housing less accessible. lol

[Kaoru_Nagisa]

How about no. A rent tacked on to an already high price to even buy a house is the kind of stuff that made me avoid ever looking for a house way back in Aion. I play a game to have fun, and it isn't fun having to continuously pay money for something I already spent out my rear on.

You wanna kill housing even worse? That's how you kill housing.
