For Estates and houses that haven’t been entered at all during the Suspension Period (the time when Automatic Demolition was disabled), however, the demolition counter will count 30 days from June 21. This means these Estates will be slated for Demolition on Friday, May 09, 2025. Players who fall into this category will be sent an email warning them of the imminent Demolition.
How does automatic housing demolition work in Final Fantasy 14?
Once an Estate is marked for Demolition, a timer will begin that usually lasts between seven and nine days. You have until the timer expires to enter your estate. Square Enix states that the timer is not exact, though, and the removal may happen close to the end of the timer. So it’s best to verify you head to your Estate as soon as possible.
Remember that to pause or reset the timer, you need to physically enter your house or Estate. Just entering the external grounds or interacting with items or retainers on the outside of the Estate will not reset the time. verify you keep hold of your hard-earned home!
