The NPC *urges* that sororities on your campus have equivalent housing and nothing more. And honestly, the national sororities don't have much desire to spend oodles on housing escalation games - if all the sororities are in dorms, even if you personally want a house, your national probably isn't going to care much. It saves money! But the moment Sorority A gets a house, the rest will run to catch up.
Example? A dozen years ago, no sorority on my campus had a house; they all had dorm floors. Then our school started moving them into houses. First Alpha Chi got a beautiful house, then several of the chapters moved into dorm-style buildings, then Phi Mu got a cute house, and then A Phi got the ultra-modern former TKE house. The university moved them based on size, which meant the smaller sororities never had a chance to keep up as the rushees just loved the houses! Sigma Psi, an old local, has a dorm-style house, and my chapter just had a dorm floor. At no time did NPC rush in and say - wait! you can't give just Alpha Chi a house! - or anything like that.
