The French and Dutch settlements differed from the Spanish colonies in that they were created mainly to trade and develop industries, while the Spanish were primarily concerned with gold and silver excavation, and then later with sugar exportation.
My answer in regards to the most important factor in house pricing would be: Location.
If the house is located in a bad neighborhood or is simply a large house surrounded by small houses, the value of the house goes does (meaning the price decreases). Also, the average price of the surrounding houses affects the house's price. Example: if you are going to sell your house which is small in a nice neighborhood with large houses, the value (price) will go up on your house.
So in short, location is often a large determination in house pricing.
Hope this helps! :)
