Buying and demolishing of buildings

I wanted to buy some houses and I found something very interesting:

Buying of houses has not the same expensiveness as demolishing of houses. Demolishing of building with price called 43 000 cost 43 000 but buying of the same building cost less then 1 000.

Why? I think that this difference should not be alive.

I currently play with release version 3157.

When you buy a house, you have also to pay monthly maintenance; thus s by level; and you have to pay for demolition. THus, it can be quite cheap.

It is very interesting. I thought some maintenance could be there - for buying of houses should not be so interesting. So I would like to know basic number - for RES, COM and IND buildings.

I'm curious as to what the purpose of buying houses is.  Is it simply to prevent your opponents from building over them?

If I am not wrong, main purpose of this feature was their saving from replacing by buildings of higher level - mostly very high buildings. By this way you can create city with historical center.

I'm currently working on a feature in Experimental that will add the cost of buying a city building to the cost of demolishing a city building that one does not already own, and will then make the greater cost the buying rather than the demolishing.
