It's not so much just the cost of building the house. It's that coupled with the poor PH environment on that particular campus. If PH isn't supportive of a new chapter, you could be throwing a lot of money down a black hole. And the university, unlike Alabama, is not presently providing any bond money, etc. So the cost of the house, the cost of a mortgage on the open market, a negative PH environment don't add up to a promising situation.
