In other words, the first 2 houses you place will not decay, but the third and higher will decay. I think the total length of time it takes to decay is like 6 months though, so there's *plenty* of time to keep it refreshed if you decide you simply *must* have more than 2 houses.
Statics haven't been decided yet, but before, there was a problem where the house decay wouldn't count for statics, so you could own as many as you wanted with no restriction. So, we're trying to think of a way to fix this problem.
One solution would be to take the supposed buy price of the static, then set up a house sign that charges 1/12 of that per real-life month, so that you effectively buy the static every year, only very slowly. Prices may need to be adjusted, etc... still very brainstormy at this point.
Actually I manually added a check to see if the house was a townhouse and prevented it from decaying because that's how I wanted it to be.
You could just remove that check if you want to, although you probably need to see what happens to the townhouse when it decays.
