Repeat a if-else loop.

What I'm wanting to know is how do I make this whole if else repeat until an invalid number is entered. I believe line 20 (the condition) does not function to do anything at the moment how should I change that?

When you declare house, it isn't initialized to a value, so it could be anything. Set it to some initial value so that the loop condition would be true from the start.
