We know what it's been like recently. It's the same situation we had prior to the data center reorganization and during all of 5.0. This might be your first rodeo but most of us have been through it before.

It may not seem like 720 new plots is a large number compared to demand but on a relatively low population world (at least for NA) like Zalera, that's quite a bit. They're not all going to disappear the moment the servers come online, and you'll find many plots becoming available in the existing wards as current owners relocate to a preferred plot in the new wards.

Your FC has an advantage as you can use your members to spread out into multiple wards to get a good house while the individual player has to do all the running around on their own. Make use of that advantage. If you're paranoid, go straight to the cheapest house in Goblet and buy it. Then you can relocate to any available preferred plot, including the existing wards that will have a lot of vacancies as current owners relocate but can't get snatched up by new buyers because the purchase timers will be in effect there.

Here's a link to maps of each housing district with plots color coded by grade. Grade 5 is always the cheapest. You can check the Housing guide on Lodestone to get the exact prices.
