As a rough rule of thumb then multiple the yearly income of the person  living in the house by around 10-20 and that'll give a ballpark to work  with.  I can give you an pertinent example from my current campaign.  Two sessions back one of the charcters inquired as to real estate for the group (5) and their followers (10).  The price at the time was around 50-100 gold a month to rent a warehouse and several thousand to buy.  They got sidetracked by questing and when they got back to town he sent a servent out to find a house. They were about to buy the house, a semi noble's residence really, not a simple house for 2500 gold down from 3500 initial asking price.   The price is a lot lower than it typically would be as people are desperate to get gold to buy passage out of town. Again quests got in the way before they could finalize the deal. In the middle of last session, after killing a town councilor aligned with evil forces they were tasked with insuring the councilor's residence had no remaining taint of evil by one of the other councilor's (he was the employer of bandits that were stealing his own gold from his ships as they came downriver and the bandits captured the group and tried to sell them to slavers so he's trying to garner favor as he knows the party knows he was behind the gold thefts)So my several thousand and 3500 and free are a result of the town's prosperity level, it's current situation (under siege) and the group's deeds. That may not be much help but really the best answer I can give you is, whatever fits the setting and the desired domicile.</blockquote>
