Anyone else feel this way? Please like and support because I feel for the amount of money being paid, the only other option is to abandon it? I think it should be possible to at least sell the house for any amount the owner would like, the difference being with furniture included or up to the purchase price. It would be beneficial, players can sell any of the three homes they want and it can help grow population and stimulate economy. Also, it’s discouraging to have no other option but abandon your house when your city is taken over by an enemy faction.
*Or - we can rent the house to another player, with furniture included, and set a weekly rent to help pay for taxes. The renter would have an additional recall and storage spot, not worry about paying taxes and get a nice home.
I agree. When i transferred, my home in Windward is now controlled by the covenant, im a marauder, so my planned base of operation is now deep in enemy territory and im not gonna see that money back.
I know I’m constantly daydreaming about non existing contents, but if you buy a house you should be able to sell it. And now I go further:
IF it is standing on the first spot of that house ranking list for more than 7 days, the game “town governor npc” should offer you a higher price for the decorated house as the full price + payed taxes were payed since your bought it.
The decision should be yours, IF you need the bonus gold, or you want to keep your house + all it’s decoration.
It could be interesting if they let you sell it to other players. Could be a nice way for people to get cheaper houses and allow the seller to recoup some funds from the house
Furniture is one of the few things we can own and then sell. We should own the house too, and we maintain the right to said house by paying taxes. If we are in good standing with those taxes, there is no reason we should not be able to sell the house.
If we cannot, then we are renting. So why are we paying taxes on rent?
Renting to others would be awesome if houses weren’t instantiated and much more effort to acquire. But like this it’s just something which might work for a few weeks until people figure out its cheaper to own their own instantiated house since rent > taxes is required else it’s a loss for the landlord.
I really hope they rework housing at some point. Remove instances and let build players residential areas around towns.
Territory Upkeep fee. I know everyone thinks town ownership is pure profit, but keeping people happy with low taxes, upgrading everything to tier V, fixing everything after all the invasions, all comes at a heavy cost.
That’s not the issue. If I was green and purple has taken over our town, I should have a choice to sell my home and not just abandon it over to an enemy faction or pay their taxes.
Just sounds more complicated and the game has other priority issues to deal with. Just fix the property tax is the solution. These puff ideas are not helping and just seems like more work.
I’m not disagreeing with you that the territory tax isn’t expensive. However, are you willing to pay territory tax weekly to an enemy faction that took over your town?
