OP, you're in Famfrit. Have you still not gotten an FC house? My SO walked up to a tier 1 small in lavender beds last night and instantly got it. There were at least 10 other houses that I'm sure were not on timer anymore, and nobody was camping them. That's just in Lavender Beds. I saw at least 3 in shiro and a bunch in Goblet. My friends also got houses pretty easily and I got new neighbors in Shirogane. The majority of plots in Famfrit should be devalued and off timer right now.
