Placing multiple buildings on one lot?
I'm trying to recreate a clan I created for a book I'm writing, and there are probably 20 or more members of the clan living within the estate walls alone.
For ease of control, I wanted all 20+ of them to be within the same household. This was solved by downloading the Larger Household mod here on MTS.* I needed room for more than one house, so I downloaded a lot resizing mod.

The problem I then realized I had was how I'm going to put multiple houses on this oversized lot. I don't want to manually build each house unless I have to, since I'm simply awful at designing houses, so I want to take pre-made houses and put them side-by-side on the same lot.
Is there a mod I can use to solve this problem, or should I back up and break the clan up into tiny families?

EDIT:
*Turns out the Larger Household mod is for Sims2, which I didn't notice earlier. Is there a Sims3 version I haven't found, since we're here?

There isn't any way of placing multiple lots into a larger one, sorry

I know that there a few different ways of "overstuffing" households in TS3 using NRAAS mods, you can find out more here

I have three ideas on this:
1- you can't copy an entire house, but you can copy rooms using the game's blueprints. Velocitygrass has a custom blueprint maker found here: http://www.modthesims.info/download.php?t=502976

2- you can download a large house or apartment complex. Search on MTS for apartments or multi-family or legacy. This one has room for 20 sims: http://www.modthesims.info/download.php?t=461927

3- you can build simple cabins with just bedrooms and a bathroom. Have them surround a "community" type common space that has a kitchen, eating area, recreation and skill building. Auto roof can be used to make it easier. HugeLunatic has a version of what I am thinking about here: http://www.modthesims.info/download.php?t=425340
