It used to take multiple generations to build a house, before houses were constructed by companies for profit.
What? Not really, people would build a house themselves before winter (see sod houses) and build it out over time. I don't know of anything other then cathedrals taking generations to build.
A small shelter can be built in less than a season but a permanent house could have taken several people years of work to build. They can be built up over one or more generations, or can be a communal effort like in social systems with clans.
I dont think OP was referring to sod houses... more like solid wood cabins and longhalls.
