In terms of SEO, is it ok to have the same word in singular and plural in the URL? For example, I have a website to sell houses but I want to target for "house" and "houses", so if a person search "buy house" or "buy houses" my website can be in the results of Google.

So, is it ok to have a URL like nicehouses.com/house/type1.html? Would Google process both terms? or will it be treated as spam? Is it a good idea to do this?

Use whichever URL structure you think is more logical and reads better for your users. Don't think in terms of keywords too much in the URL, especially when dealing with variations of the same word, because:

Keywords in the URL count very little towards SEO.
Google already knows the relationship between house and houses (plurals) and is quite likely to return results that contain "houses" when you search for "house" (and vice versa).
