I see so many movies, old and new, that I think I’m seeing an actual house, or a street, or some place. Then when I see the behind the scenes footage, it’s often not a real house, or street scene. It always just seems like such a huge waste of money. Could they not have found or used a real house or street or town?

Sure, they sometimes do. For example the “Home Alone” movies were shot on a real street in real houses. However, for 3 months the street was blocked off and covered with wires and camera tracks. They fiddled with the artificial snow for hours before dawn every morning, no doubt making a lot of noise. The people who lived in the other houses were paid for the inconvenience, but the whole neighborhood was disappointed when Home Alone 2 was announced. You’ll notice a lot less of the house in the sequel.
