  1. had a basement in a previous house. a catchall that was a pain to clear out when i moved.
  2. plumbing encased in concrete lasts longer than pvc above ground under your house. had that too.
  3. ac was already here when i got here and it is an aftermarket setup consisting of a simple split system. costs about 8k new. approx 5 yrs old when i got it. 4's why we bulid on elevated ground where possible. and once there, dont have to worry about falling through the floor due to wet rot or insect damage.
