Didn't sound like they were directing it anyone in particular. I'll agree a lot of the houses were just bought and abandoned. I went running around Shirogane mansions for ideas in the first few wards/subdivisions and there were way too many completely empty mansions which is sad considering how few there are (although there were quite a few smaller ones with nothing done too).

I have a few friends who really wanted to get into housing. They ended up buying a cottage and got sort of overwhelmed when they tried to design it, especially when they find how much Gil they need to furnish it, so they let it go auto demolish. I really think alot of players THINK they want or need a house, then find out later on that it's not what they thought.

Katya, I just looked up your FC, character info. How much Gil do you guys have saved up for a house? Did you know that in the last 2 months, there have been 12 large houses for sale on our server? Ranging from 80-200m. You have 500fc members. Even if each member only chipped in a half mil, you would be living in your dream Shirogane plot 7/16/30 like last month. If my gimped ass with only three lv 70 crafting jobs can make 400m , then I'm sure you can get the large of your dreams. Just gotta bust your butt and hustle. FYI

Or maybe one just doesn't want to add gil to greedy houseflippers coffers. Not sure how the one you're aiming at is feeling 'bout it but myself? I'd prefer not to be part of the problem.

Selling a house for a big profit is against the rules (word of Yoshida himself) so selling a house for 200m should fall under that rule. Also its not a safe transfer. You dont pay the money and get the house. You have to pay the seller in a lot of transactions since Gil transfer has a limit and then you should hope that the seller is not a black sheep or you get unlucky and someone snatches the house away from you. That is way too much a risk for something that expensive and like Genpai said not everyone wants to help the greedy flippers out.

Normally a mansion costs 50 mill max. I would hope that we get a solution where everyone has to pay that price and not have to pay four times the amount to get the mansion.

A large mist empty plot runs up to 50m. Add a Shirogane castle skin which is 30m and furnishings. That's easy 100m. I don't see anything wrong with buying an FC house from an FC who is leaving servers or something. I don't think that's a greedy house flippers. We have had alot of players jump servers. I don't mind donating to their server transfer?

Yes, It is a greedy house flipper. If they ask for sale price, then I could acknowledge that, I might even consider buying it at that point, but if you ask for 200 million gil just to .open. a slot, that is just greed.

Well but that is another problem. You wrote in the other post that it should be easy for the player since they already have a big FC with a lot of members. Your solution would mean that they would have to give up their old one to buy the other one. This means that they would first give the lead to someone else in their FC and then if they bought it without any problems and got the rights to the FC then they need to invite all the other members to the new one. (And hope that they can change their name to their old one)

But even that way a lot can go wrong. Who is to tell that they just take your gil, kick you out of the FC again and leave with the Gil? I am honestly not sure if the GM would help those that buy wholes FCs. What if you pay all the money, get the leadership but other ranks have rights too and they take all the items out of the house?

Since the opening of Shirogane I have learned a lot about what others will do and how players and f c will buy plots for a profit..it's just a game and real life accomplishments impress me more when acquiring plot/property but it's the way things go eh? I have the craziest misfortunes as the f c leader returned briefly after a 14 months absence and if which I returned to him the f c plot etc..now I have it again..wth? On another sever I have an f c property abandoned but since I am the only member active guess who has that one so not all plots etc in 14 is gotten through trickery etc.I do feel for those players who seek housing but can't because of some people monopolizing.
