Is there a \ding symbol for a house?
We can use direct \pdfliteral
. For example:
\def\house{\hbox{\kern3pt \vbox to13pt{}%
\pdfliteral{q 0 0 m 0 5 l 5 10 l 10 5 l 10 0 l 7 0 l 7 5 l 3 5 l 3 0 l f
1 j 1 J -2 5 m 5 12 l 12 5 l S Q }%
\kern 13pt}}
House: \house.
\end
% arara: lualatex
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{fontspec}
\newcommand*{\house}[2]{{\fontspec{#1}\symbol{"#2}}}

Lamentable class:
\house{symbola.ttf}{26FA}
\house{quivira.otf}{26FA}
Lower class:
\house{code2000.ttf}{2302}
\house{symbola.ttf}{2302}
\house{Linux Libertine O}{2302}
\house{quivira.otf}{2302}
\house{freeserif.ttf}{2302}
Middle class:

\house{quivira.otf}{1F3E0}
Upper class:

\house{quivira.otf}{1F3E1}
Property owner:

\house{quivira.otf}{1F3E2}
Dandy:

Well, I guess I'll join the bandwagon too. This solution uses the fontawesome
package/symbol font.
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{fontawesome}
\begin{document}
Test home symbol: \faHome
