With new NA and EU data centers coming in the near future, lack of housing won't be an issue anymore. Anyone who wants a house can just transfer servers to the new datacenters which will be free.

Moreover, with data center travel in 6.18, you can still play with your friends while having a house on another data center. Based on what is happening in Materia, there will be more empty plots than occupied plots so anyone who wants a house don't have a reason to complain.
