I don't think the lottery applies day one but for houses that are under a timer due to demolition. I believe housing with be first come first server as it's always been with the new wards but I could be wrong. They also haven't stated how many wards will be FC only. I would hope they're not half the wards because that just invites more people to create small FC's as opposed to purchasing a private.
