Most NA worlds saw everything sold within a couple of hours of the servers coming online.

It was in 4.2 that SE started adding in the restrictions that made it more difficult, though not impossible, for players to resell houses and began to implement personal purchase moratoriums as new wards were released.
Yay, i remembered that all of my server houses were gone in about 38 minutes and for months house flippers where selling off houses. Well goblet still had a few smalls.

The auto demo coming back is ok but they still need just make the move to instanced houses because they'll need like double on most servers for houses and more then triple on the high pop ones for it to be ok with the way it is now with wards.
