So if you are a small FC or own a small privat house you can just get more rooms by buying more thus you also have a gil sink.
    In the end they put out lots of rewards and crafting items for housing but there is still not enough demand for everyone owning a house..
    Yup, they could do a lot of things to minimize the want to get more then one house. I guess this is the result of trying to charge people as much as possible for "extra items and services" while not putting money back in the game. To add on this and someone else said, You could also pay more gil to expand how much you can grow, pay more for how many grade III buffs you can charge at once but no it seems they go out of their way to be as anti-consumer as possible with housing. What is shocking to me in that regard some people still go out of their way to try defend and make excuses for SE despite how bad housing is.

    But hey if they manage to trick people in paying 30 or 45 dollars a month for 2/3 subs, they did a good job to maximize profits right? that is all that matters right? How much money you make, not how you treat your customers.

    Does everyone realize that we have went from 450,540,720,1440,2160,2880 to now 4320 plots? What else do you want? It’s not hard to get a house. In facts it’s almost too easy now. Anyone who doesn’t have a house and complains about either 1) lacks intelligence (sorry but it’s true) 2) doesn’t know how 3) doesn’t have gil or 4) is being way to picky about what plot they want.

    On Moogle alone there are (at least if I use the search option) over 4000 FCs. Now next to them you can also buy it for your own too. And lets not forget that this game should be growing thus more and more people that also want housing.

    Solution: Let the old wards stay for all of those that want neighbors and give us at least one instanced zone. Nobody can complain about housing anymore and if you have more than one instanced zone people could even own multiple houses without taking it away from others. Everyone happy, and we would not even need the discussion right now.

    Letter from the Producer LIVE Part IX Q&A Summary (10/30/2013)
    Q: Will there be any maintenance fees or other costs for housing, besides the cost of the land and house?
    A: In older MMOs, such as Ultima Online, there was a house maintenance fee you had to pay weekly, but in FFXIV: ARR we decided against this system. Similarly, these older MMOs also had a system where your house would break down if you didn’t log in after a while in order to have you continue your subscription, but this is a thing of the past and we won't have any system like that.
