Most tornadoes are not strong enough to throw houses. Those few that are strong enough can sometimes thrown them great distances. In one case a houses was thrown 1/4 mile. However, when a house is picked up there is a good chance it will disintegrate in the air, in which case it won't be thrown so much as it will be scattered.
