Fix Housing Megathread

[ItMe]

We get A LOT of threads kicking around ideas for how SQEX can make buying a house not suck in FF14. Heck, just under half of the first page of the housing board is just such threads. Tiny ones where someone proposes their ideas and others discuss it for a few pages before the thread dies. There are also a lot of ideas that keep coming back up, so I figured having a Megathread centralize the discussion would probably be pretty useful.

You got thoughts?

This is the place for them~
How do you think we can fix housing?

For reference, here are some already existing threads about housing as some topics have been pretty thoroughly discussed (not that I'm discouraging further discussion of these ideas).
