I don't completely agree with that. I live in NJ and I have lived in some of the 1960's construction when developments were being put up as quickly and cheaply as possible--construction boom.

Bi-levels do not have basements.
Many NJ homes of this era are built on slabs. Our plumbing pipes in one house ran under the slab! When problems developed you had a major problem accessing them.
I'm not saying the TX houses would be any better, I don't know that area. I do know NJ and I know a lot of people had to have have been paid off to get these homes approved.
