Meh. I don't think FCs/guilds need anything to make them "worth it". They are "worth it" by providing a unifying banner for a group of people. Anything else is unnecessary gravy. Not saying they should remove perks, just that I don't think people should be made to ever feel like they need a guild unless they want to join a group of like-minded people.
Besides that, other games have managed to make both guild and individual housing quite successfully without absurd restrictions or worries of no one using guild housing because it's not special enough. People use guild housing for the exact same reason everyone wants a personal house: because it's there and it's cool and it's something that represents your group of likeminded people.
