How the Housing Lottery works in Final Fantasy XIV
In Final Fantasy XIV, the housing lottery gives players a fair chance to buy empty housing plots in-game. During the Housing Lottery Period, you’ll be able to place a bid on a house, provided you have enough money. Once you’ve paid the money, you’ll be entered into a lottery with anyone else making a purchase. If you’re the only one who placed a bid, you’ll win after the lottery concludes.
