I'll add in my two cents as well, since this applies somewhat to my own FC and our position about a month ago when we got our medium.
For us (DOVE) personally it was about getting back some of the costs. As well as helping some of our members get their personal rooms by having gil available to reimburse since many people are RPers first and foremost and weren't apt at playing the market and making enough for furniture costs AND room fee.Â
Plus, the plot we wanted was in high demand and some others were looking to get it since it was in a popular RP ward in the LB. So that few extra million on top of what we had would help us get the house and all that we needed faster. In the end, we sold it to a raid like FC who could afford the extra few million on top of SE, and they were doing dances in the front yard like tribal children. Everyone was happy.
But I have to agree with Kage: Because the game doesn't allow a friendlier system to sell houses directly and its all on SE, we make do with what we have. If I was able to sell the house directly to someone, I'd have made it cheaper then what SE did.
However, it's just not a thing. At least not now anyways. I don't look down on anyone for doing it, and those who can afford to do it will do it and those who can afford to pay will pay. That's ultimately on them. I can see why it's disheartening, but I personally plan to work with what the game and SE gives me and make the most out of it for myself and especially for my FC members.
