First Generation of Varra
Since this game evolves on our terms, we technically " inhabit " the servers first. Those who play this at release would technically be the founding generation of Varra, and thus a good portion of us would be wealthier as compared to the following generations.
In this MMORPG in paticular though, would tit be possible for a single player to own enough land that becomes a city, and like, run it? Like the possibility of a king/mayor? Say its your land and someone wants to build their house on it... free? Do they pay the land owner? tax?
I imagined a player joining a few months after release, and then he joins to see like a castle or something, and he journeys in and discovers that <Username> is the mayor of the town, you can choose to reside there under " X " circumstances.
Sorry if you found this post confusing, my thoughts are all over the place and personally I am not even sure if I made sense. Just felt like posting

You can own freeholds.
Nodes that develop into cities require a constant input of resources from, likely, a large group of players.
Each node has a government type all it's own though.
Science Nodes - Democracy (i think)
Military Nodes - Strongest character
Economic Nodes - Richest character
Religious Nodes - Most devout character
So, as for wealth and owning a city, perhaps early onset players have a chance at leading the Economic nodes sooner than others, but I think the same can be said for all nodes.
Hopefully new players (for many years after release) will encourage siege events so they can help their own nodes progress in a way they want them to. When these new nodes start progressing, players that started later than the 'first generation' will likely have an equal chance at being the leader.

Just like @Azathoth said you can't directly own the city but could be elected or what ever the process to becoming a mayor in that city is (economic node = be rich)
For something that could've been just a typo... in a realm where words have literal power (magic), as well as multiple languages, it isn't a trivial thing.
These are the YouTube Versions ( same thing though )

There are 3 types of Housing- HouseHold
- Instanced-Apartments
- FreeHolds
The these Housing Options are available at different Node Levels( which progresses (unfathomably) slowly )
regrettably you would have to take into consideration for those who are willing to put in 12+ hours into the Ashes MMO - they'll always be someone who will try to break th game
- Sure, in testing phases ( mainly Alpha ) " trying to break " the Game should a Given. But in Beta Phases, it should be less prevalent and more " refined " - but still trying to find any loops
Regardless, even after Launch ...i hope you get my point hereYes if you get enough tit you'll run everything lol. sorry i had to
This is a good reference for various housing quotes and information. I will also link the Discord quotebin which also has a whole section on housing.

TL;DR One freehold per account. Multiple houses and apartments character limit based.
This says only one of each.
