    I bought a house!

    So happy that I bought a house! Cost about 4 million (small) I'm so happy I have my own garden. I didn't realize the real cost is... furnishing the house. OMG lol too many options too many things that I want added to my house. Made me curious how much have you guys dropped to furnish your houses? Did you feel it was worth it?

    I crafted most of the furnishings in my FC house and at least 3 of the personal rooms therein. Only had to splurge on a couple choice items I couldn't make myself at the time, the investment into crafting really pays off for the aesthetic portions of this game. All in all though aside from the cost of the house itself, I've probably spent 3-4 mil on furniture over the last 2 years.

    As an omni crafter and gatherer.... furnishing my FC house didn't cost me much of anything. Couple thousand gil for the NPCs, but just easier to make things myself to decorate it, aside from the GC seals stuff.

    Only stuff I have bought were the stable, the garden plot, the aestician bell, the summon bell for retainers, the repair npc, the junk monger npc, the armoire and the fish tank.

    Everything else I have is from seasonal events, from the mog staion or things retainers brought back from ventures.

    It's very hard to say how much I have spent over the last three years on furnishings (I generally furnish my FC's house and my small personal house). On the low end I would probably say I have spent 15mil.... on the high end probably around 30mil. I do craft most of the things that I have, or have a friend craft them but still stuff is expensive~

    Everything in my house I crafted myself unless it a event item, so spent next to nothing to furnish my house. The house it self cost me a lot though got house before the did the price reduction so paid 37 million for a medium house which I believe now sells for only 20 million since the price reduction.

    Yeah, my friend told me I should get stuff I wanted crafted. Looking into that. I should really look into crafting more other than just being able to self repair lol. My friend also gave me the link to a website to look at all the furnishing to see what it looks like and it includes the recipes. I sometimes just get lazy and say fudge it just buy it all! lol

    I've paid fairly little to furnish mine - omnicrafter here. I'd recommend checking an external database like gamerescape to see if something you like is buyable, though. There's a lot that sells in the housing district NPCs that's on the MB for ridiculous amounts of gil. If you don't craft yourself, you can also buy mats on the MB and ask a friend/FC member/make a PF to craft it for you.

    Personally, I have never purchased a personal house. However, I completely paid for our free company's medium house, which I believe was somewhere between 20M and 25M; I don't recall the exact amount. I also have had a total of four rooms. Therefore, 1.2M in total in that regard. My room's decoration costed a few millions in total, but the brunt of the decoration being storable means that I didn't have to pay all that much whenever I made a new room, as I never deviated from the base design very much. I have also furnished a large portion of the decoration for our free company house, but I definitely cannot put my finger on an approximate cost for it. Most likely under 10M.

    Decorating is very expensive if you don't buy housing items from NPC vendors, that much is certain. I did not, with the exception of some event only items. I wish you the best of luck with your decorating plans.

    Innocence doesn't mean an absence of wickedness, nor is it represented by the absence of anger or hatred. Innocence is when seeing others hurt also hurts you. When one becomes blind to the people suffering in the world, that is what it means to have lost one's innocence.

    One thing I am finding out there is a distinct lack of color options for housing items. I want to be able to paint all my stuff and house wild colors! When is that going to be an option!?!?!?
