All the information you need to know about the player’s home, including how to buy a personal or free corporate home.
In FFXIV , the house is the real wreck. Everyone wants a place to live between decoration, gardening and having a comfortable corner with AFK.
However, housing is not guaranteed, so you have to meet many conditions before you can determine your location.
Players can purchase a house of their own or together with members of their Free Company. Players can place various items in the house.They can also use the house for a number of in-game activities such as Gardening. Free Company estates also house a crafting workshop where players can build airshipsand other special projects. In order to acquire a house, players must first raise the rank of their free company to 6 and obtain a Land Acquisitionentitlement.
4 Residential Districts are available: The Mist in Limsa Lominsa, Lavender Beds in Gridania, The Goblet in Ul’dah, and Shirogane in Kugane.
All 4 Residential Districts now have 21 wards (Up from 12 since patch 4.2, up from 18 since patch 5.1). The Wards have two halves with a total of 60 plots, 30 for each half. You will always teleport into the primary half of the ward selected to visit. If you wish to go to plots 31-60 you will have to use the mini-aetherites to port into the Sub-Division half of the ward.
Note that after patch 3.1, claimed land and houses that become inactive (not accessed by its owner(s)) for an extended period of time will be reclaimed by the game (owner(s) will lose the land and house).
To buy a private home, you must be at least level 50 and have reached the rank of Lieutenant with your grand company. To buy a home in Shirogane, you must meet these requirements and complete the stormwood task “no accidents.”.
Alt aholics beware that each service account on each server can only have one private home. For example, you can’t have two private homes on matteus, but you can have one on Mateus and one on zalera.
Your FC must have 4 or more members and have reached level 6 to buy a home. The leader of a football club must also set your level on the basis of obtaining a land purchase or abandonment permit.
The player who buys the plot cannot have other roles on the same server as the FC leader who owns the house. Most players don’t lead multiple substitutes for free companies, so this is not a common problem.
After you’ve bought the land, you need to buy the Housing permit to actually get a house on the plot you just bought. You have 45 days for this (if you don’t build in this time, you will lose the land due to reclamation of inactive housing). ou can buy this permit by using the housing menu on your plot, choosing “Estate Hall” and then “Purchase Construction Permit”. It will cost you:
Small, medium and large houses can only be built on small, medium and large plots respectively. This also means that after buying the plot you’re settled on the size, and if you want to get a house of different size, you must relinquish the land and get another plot. (You can’t even build a smaller house on a bigger plot.)
While building the house you have to make a choice between three exterior types: wood, composite or stone. You can change the exterior components afterwards if you like, but choose the one you like the most.
You do not have to pay any additional Gil fees after purchasing the house, but you have to enter the house every 45 days to keep your land. If you do not, the parcel will be considered abandoned and will be resold.
For a free corporate home, at least one member of FC must enter the home at least once every 45 days. Meanwhile, you can buy ffxiv gil at pvpbank with the cheapest prices.
The price of the house depends on the size of the house, the desirability of the plot and the sale time of the house in the market. The price of a small house is 3-4 million gils; the media costs 15-20 million gils; and a large piece of land is between 40-50 million gils. The price of each home drops every four hours, but unless you plan to play the most annoying scenario of the game on a sparsely populated server, it’s unlikely to have a significant impact on your costs.
The biggest obstacle to getting a home in FFXIV is availability. The number of parcels available on each server is the same, so, for example, it’s much easier to buy a house on siren than on balmung.
On the low-end server, you can immediately walk to an open space and buy a piece of land. On more crowded servers, you’ll find yourself stuck in a 14 hour frenzy of clicks waiting for the completion of the plot availability timer, which means that if you don’t lose out to those who click faster, the exact time the house is available.
Once you have a home, you can relocate to the new plot without waiting for the home timer. After giving up the house, it will start a random timer: the plot is only available for players who already have a house for 12 to 24 hours.
When you move, you will get a discount on the new plot based on the size of the old house. Moving will move all your housing items to the warehouse, so you can easily decorate new excavations. Your house shell will automatically zoom to the size of the new house, so your small Chocobo house becomes a large Chocobo building.
