Don't hold your breath. Changing from the disaster of a housing system that FFXIV has now to the actually enjoyable system WildStar has would mean trashing their entire concept and reworking everything from almost scratch. I really, really doubt that will ever happen. If you want WS-style housing, you're better off playing WS (or Rift, which has essentially the same thing).
Well, like I said I don't expect it to happen in the immediate future but I'm hoping that they'll find a way around it. We're getting Ishgard in the next expansion so maybe that will launch with a whole bunch of housing plots.
Though from what I hear Balmung has a huge amount of competition for houses whereas other servers don't. It's a bit frustrating that people can buy more than one plot per account when they're already so limited.
