Underground houses and drainage questions in a gated future
A Texas designer built an underground house for about 100000 with luxury features and later sold for under 50000, a case not indicative of general value. Underground homes are still built, though less commonly. Also guidance on yard drainage suggests a minimum grade of 1 in 100 and gravel drainage before soil rework. Regarding earnest money on a house, recovery depends on legal factors and the reason for backing out.
