Did you know that The world’s largest treehouse has over 80 rooms, 10 floors and took the builder over 14 years to build.

Mail-order houses go way back! You might think that DIY tiny homes that you order online are the latest real estate trend, but that’s actually far from the case. In the 1900s, Sears started featuring a kit for making a house in its catalogs. The mail-order kit would feature the blueprint and all the pieces you’d need to build a simple house many settlers who came to America and bought a plot of land would build this type of simple house on it as they settled into life in th...e new country. According to NPR, between 70,000 and 75,000 people ordered houses from Sears this way by 1940.

This house is owned by 5 different countries!! Last year, an opulent Manhattan mansion hit the market a normal, everyday affair if not for the fact that its owners include the governments of Bosnia, Croatia, Macedonia, Serbia and Slovenia. The 20,000-square-foot home, which was modeled after the castle of Versailles, was bought by the Republic of Yugoslavia as a New York embassy in 1946.... But when the republic dissolved into separate countries in 1992, the property suddenly found itself with five current co-owners who all need to sign off if the house is ever to be sold.
