In this detailed video we go through the major housing glitches for FFXIV Housing. This is a complete guide that covers how to float furniture and much more in Final Fantasy XIV (FF14).
I can Confidently say that, though this video is a couple years old, it is still very much relevant in 2022. All of the glitches still work 100%!
Once Ishgard Housing launches with 6.1 in April, I plan to go after a mansion. It’s something I have been working towards since this video came out. Once I am successful, have to stay positive of course, I plan to make a new guide. Though the glitches are the same, I have added a lot to my video recording & editing skillset. I already have a lot of ideas on how I can make this content better and more entertaining.
In the meantime, if you like this video, below are a few others I recommend you take a look at.
Thank you again team for all of your support!

For some reason whatever indo my wooden loft stays purple against the white rectangular partition, any tips?
Hey Blake have you ever floated Slanted Skylights? I tried the riveriea shelf and wooden loft and the rug but cant get it off the ground.
Great tutorial, much appreciated. My fc leader links this video to our fc members including myself the other day. I really feel like I learned everything I needed to know about furnishing tricks from just this one video. Its rare to watch a tutorial video where I don't feel the need to pause and go back. You give a lot of information without being overwhelming to someone totally new to furnishing and that takes a lot of effort 🙂
How do i keep my poster from snapping to the wall? I'm using the back of the Hingan Wardrobe as a "TV", however each time i place the poster on there it snaps back to the wall when im too far or exit my Apartment.
I've watched quite a few videos before this but no one went into enough detail for me to understand these glitches. They're like "click this, click that, and then it's not bound anymore, etc.", Okay….but what are you clicking? In what order? What buttons? They're always just so vague. Thank you SO MUCH for actually explaining in detail. I'm a PS4 user but was able to translate this and get the ones I needed working finally.
Did they fix this stuff? I tried putting my bench back outside of my house against the fence, but it won't go no matter what I do. It's driving me nuts
So at 17:08 instead of guessing where to put the wall (item you want to float on the riviera shelf) look at the orange move clover. The center of the clover needs to be "on" the shelf. If the center is not on the shelf, then it won't move. The lift point for all furniture is the center of rotation.
How does it work with the mail-box and the "Context Menu"? O_O
Everytime i hit – Place, he doesnt do it… ):
i tried this so many time and for the life of me i cant get it to work
I love this video! I was wondering how to put a couple of stairs in the basement to create my bedroom. Yes I FINALLY won a plot! Limsa had quite a few. Which was weird. Small ones though which I what I got. I am just wondering what the fallout is going to be since there aren't any more houses to buy. You may be lucky and if they open up another area in a different city…RUN!! Lol. One day I would love to get a medium. And yeah, the lottery still sucks. There has to be another way to purchase a house without mass hysteria.
17:42 tried that for 30 minutes straight doesnt work at all for me x.X
I've watched 10 videos of housing glitches and yours is the better explained. Thank you
Could you please tell me what those dials are from, which furniture piece? Thank you
Crushing Defeat is a good housing channel name because thats what you feel when you lose a housing lottery
@28:50 what is context menu on PC/Mac? A keybind? Thank you in advance!
Does anyone know if this is possible on consle
Hey, so if I want to lower something, say I want to glitch a pond into the floor, how do I achieve this?
Love the video, will try a few of these for my house! I did the floating deck but using a different technique where one uses the camera to place escape the deck with its centre right within the fence. Paired it with the oriental wood bridge, which isn't as high as the arched bridge but has a more minimalist design.
Upvote my dude, I didn't know why it didn't stick when I did the floating glitch, but now I know what to do.
Soo… I did this float with a stage panel, and a wooden loft to float a bed. I want the wooden loft to stay as the upper floor but it's stuck to the stage panel. How do you unstick it…. lol or avoid the stage panel and wooden loft from sticking together while floating the bed? Because otherwise I can't place the wooden loft under the floated bed without leaving it when I do the last float for the bed. Hope this makes sense. Tysm for this video. GREAT STUFF.
Tried the mailbox glitch but it did not work. It just says cannot place. This patched?
Great video – other content makers should take this as example
Housing Tools:
Buy from Merchant- Stage Panel/ Oasis Rug
Craft/Marketboard: Oriental round table/White partition table/Riviera wall shelf
Apartment: Floating Glitch 2 – I definitely can't get that hit box tho.
Trying to figure this out. Left click + escape just puts the item back in my inventory instead of placing it
Your video is amazing…question…I am struggling to get my country kitchen and glade desk up on my loft. The tables and beds worked fantastic…any tips?
Hey Team! Sorry this was down for a bit. The video was erroneously claimed by someone else. Thankfully justice prevailed!
In the meantime, I made an updated version with better audio, different music, and a few other updates here.
