  Materials like wood, steel or iron, concrete, insulation which is usually a fiberglass blend, bricks or vinyl siding, rubber, tar, and shingles are used generally to build the basics of a house generally. Although, some people build houses out of large logs.
  
  I hope this helps!

Homes are a place that memories are made, where you are surrounded by the humblest of belongings that make you smile, decorated with personal touches and sentimental items that ooze your personality and style, where you begin each day, and where you rest your head each night, but most importantly your home is where your heart is and where your loved ones come together to celebrate the wins, the loses and life’s special milestones.

  2.3 Million are estimated to be as of 2021. There have been no further estimations since, so I would guess 2.5 billion.
