How many people have multiple houses?

[JunseiKei]

Oh that article. I was wondering when it'd show up on here.

Mateus, the smallest populated server. Doesn't surprise me they own 1 ward. I find it [more] astonishing they managed to acquire 84 million gil on that server (assuming it wasn't a transferred character, but probably was). However, yes, they've not done anything wrong. There's nothing in the rules against owning multiple houses. The only things against the rules are selling houses (players cannot guarantee the sale of a house, only the ability to relinquish the plot) or house flipping (buying with the intent of selling later).

That being said, I have a small on my main as well as a two-person FC with a small. My husband has a small and shares it with me (I gave him the gil for it) and my ALT has a small. Looking to buy my neighbor's medium when Shirogane comes out and hoping to lose my ALT's small.

Honestly, there should be one house that is linked to the Mogstation that anyone can buy and be maintained much like extra retainers (I only suggest this because it DOES take server space). It's per account- it's accessed like an inn's room. Only you can access it, you cannot share it. You can upgrade it (from small all the way to mansion). Can have gardens. All ALTs on the account have access to it. It's personal only- FCs cannot use it. Let the open world, visit-able houses be reverted back to FC-only (refund the value of the house + it's furniture much like the transfer incentives).
