Please implement properity tax

[Tsunenori]

I think this is a good idea if you want to murder the housing market in the game further, and ensure that players continue to leave out of frustration at the way systems are being handled. Players like myself have already spent enough time being extremely frustrated with the way housing has been handled from the day it was implemented, and for me tax would be the thing that makes me quit outright and never return. I already can't take more than a month break if I want to retain what I worked extremely hard to afford.

Punishing players for developer shortsightedness is not the solution.

Edit: If there's any system to really be pushing for it's an account-based limitation on housing. Players who own multiple personal and FC houses across multiple characters are holding a lot more land that could be given to people who want it.

JUst like real life, properity tax needs to be implement, can u imagine how ur meightborhood would look like if they don't collect tax and stop all maintenance.

FFXIV isn't real life. I don't play a fantasy game to emulate real life. Your idea is terrible, and it won't be implemented.

With extreme lack of housing and refusal to add new ward base on generic format instead of server damand. Its time we need to disencourage ppl from owning a house by implementing properity tax. Withour implementing taxes how else would the 3 states of Eorzea maintenance their land, gil does not grow on trees; so how does 1-3 mill a month sound.

You guys are so bitter for not having a house that you need to come up with such stupid ideas?

1mil a month lol... Get out.

I detect a little salt. Looks like one special vulture didn't get the plot she was camping <3 So lets take out our rage on the undeserving bystanders.

I camped at MY chosen plot of land against 8 people, for 50 hours straight. That is MORE than taxing enough, both literally and figuratively. More houses are coming, just hunker down and wait. In the time you're spending being sour about it, think about the advantage you now possess!

You have up to 6 months to continue gathering/saving money. Instead of that small you were after, how about a medium? Were you getting a medium? Shoot for the stars, go big or go home! Get a large!

Ishgard homes are coming soon, be the first to have a snow-home.

There's no reason to be bitter. I went into this thinking there was no way I'd get a house, and I got lucky...but even if I hadn't, I'd have just sold my medium mog-walls and started saving for that large. ...and maybe bought myself a treat on MB.

What a cool idea. Lets add even more punishing mechanics to house owners so they might decide to abandon their house and i have a 1/5000 chance of getting it as they do that.

Dear god why?

The earliest they could have possibly been up (when the server came up today) was less than 15 hours before they actually did. Why would you have started late Tuesday night? What madness grips you?

1-3m a month? Lol, I don't think so. While I do think a tax would add a little more to the entire aspect of being immersed in home ownership I think anything over 50k is ludicrous.

I live in the real world, and just like in the Goblet of Uldah **I DON'T PAY A PROPERTY TAX**. Don't assume that because you think it's okay that others will. I saved to buy my house in real life, just like I did in Eorzea (although I didn't need a mortgage in Eorzea!) through hard work and dedication. There was no rush in the Goblet because nobody wanted housing at the time and for ages I had my part of the ward to myself.

If they introduced a property tax it would mean I'd have to spend time "making money" in the game in a job like fashion. I play for fun, not to live in a real life simulation. Next you'll want to introduce a Tax Man & transmissible diseases, just like in your life. ¬_¬

Because there were already campers forming up at that time. Balmung's housing market is as cut-throat as Black Friday Sales. You either beat someone senseless with your shopping cart, or you go homeless.

Yes. OP, let's make the housing market even better by making sure only the really rich can afford a house AND property taxes while encouraging RMT as well.
