Adressing the roots of the housing problem

[Syrehn]

Players will be permitted to own only one private and one free company estate per World per service account.

All I have to say is... it's about time!

Honestly, I can't foresee SE forcing players who do own multiple properties to give them up (but I could be wrong). My speculation is that they'll be grandfathered in, but we'll know more when they release their "special site".

The randomized timer for re-purchase is also a good idea as it will help with house flippers who are price gouging players. It does suck though that this means you can't relinquish a house to a friend.

I'd actually like to see them potentially add a feature that would allow you to transfer ownership of your estate to someone whom you share it with.

I don't think I agree with the FC only purchase restriction on ward release. That's really not fair for individuals, especially those on high pop servers, they're going to be ass out of luck. If they were going to do something like this I feel like they should have restricted it to FC's in primary wards and personal houses in the sub-wards. :/
