Maybe, just maybe adding tax to house owner might make it a little better?

It doesn't make much sense to tax people with houses. Houses themselves should just cost more money. If supply is low and demand is high the prices should go up until demand tails off. Flat pricing is one of the main issues that caused the shortage.

No taxes...

Taxing won't really resolve anything, especially at the rates you propose. Those who own a house are already way more likely to be wealthy. A couple hundred K is nothing to me when I can make 3 mil or more with a day's worth of crafting.

Sure let the timer run out 45 days after last payment. But let us pay for up to a year in advance this way i can take a 6 month break come back and have all my stuff still be there.

Taxes will hurt the little players who aren't really swimming in the riches much much more than it will the people you're expecting it to put a control on. Can you imagine a player finally getting their house after months of placard clicking and then they lose it because they couldn't pay their tax/rent?
Multiplot owners can easily shoulder such taxes and there isn't a tax bracket based on your ff income so the tax would be flat across every player.

No.

Add more housing.

The end.

1. we dont need taxes, I also do NOT agree with housing timer of demolition... IF one still subscribes that should automatically ensure possession of home. If one unsubs then maybe a timer ...but that timer should be very very long (a year at least) but even that i really dont agree with.

2. we need more housing!
SE add double, triple whatever it takes. and adjust your selling, transferring of ownership via FC leadership...etc rules to make certain players can only own one home ..countless ideas have been suggested to counter mass owning and "reselling"

3. instanced housing was always the best suggestion, right from the start. An empty neighbourhood is a waste of resources/space. Rift had far superior design with dimensions.

I have M house and dont have any complain toward the current housing system,
But i hear complain a lot... so...

I just suddenly think about this, that maybe adding a montly fee(in gil ofc, prefarably not that much 100k for S 200k for M 300k for L per month? Idk) would make the housing better?

Again its just a random idea xd

My tax is $15/month. That’s enough.

[Nix]

Absolutely no taxes.

I've already bought my mansion, I maintain an active subscription, and I visit my mansion daily so that it doesn't demolish. Adding taxes would do nothing.

They need a a tax to allow people to post to this forum. Please stop with trying to take houses away from people who own them.
