What is the FFXIV housing lottery schedule for October 2023?

Purchasing a house in FFXIV is a very expensive time, and you also need to make sure that you're ready for the housing lottery to take place. This was introduced during patch 6.1 and had a bit of a rough start in the game.

Houses are available to individual players and Free Companies so that those within the Free Company can each have a room that they can decorate as they like.

Here's the latest housing lottery schedule in FFXIV.
