FFXIV Housing Lottery Schedule February 2025

Buying a house in any market feels like a next-to-impossible task these days, and getting your foot on the property ladder in Final Fantasy XIV can feel somehow more confusing than real life.

Getting a virtual house in the MMO can feel like a daunting prospect, but the Lottery system introduced in patch 6.1 did a lot to mak﷽e the entire process more fair for those who want to take part. 

Admittedly, it’s still not exactly easy, and you’ll likely face stiff competition, but we’ve moved on a long way from the days of camping outside an available plot for days on en💜d, constantly clicking on the For Sale board along wit🔯h dozens of other hopeful buyers in the vague hope that you’re the one who clicks last and wins the plot. 

Those were dark 𝔉days, and however you feel about the Lottery system, it’s definitely an improvement. 

How does the Housing Lottery work in Final Fantasy XIV?

The Housing Lottery works on a cyclic system, alternati𝔉ng between Entry Periods an🍸d Results Periods. 

Entry Period

During each five-day Entry Period, you’ll be able to pꦡlace a bid on any available plot that takes your fancy by interacting with the board outside the plot. You’ll also see how many others have placed bids and how long you need to wait until the Results Period begins. 

Results Period

The Results Period for each cycle lasts for four days, and this is when you’ll find out if you’ve won the plot you put ♎a bid on. To claim a plot you’ve won, you’ll need to interact with the board outside and pay the required amount of Gil. If you fail to claim a plot that you won, you’ll not only ♎lose the plot itself but also 50% of the deposit you placed down.
