I have had success printing a house floor plan one level at a time. But I used fusion360 to make the floorplan in CAD based on floorplan images.
If exporting an .stl or .obj aren't available, you can export a dxf of each floor, and re-extrude in Fusion360. See below image link.

Bambu has a series of YouTube tutorials for Bambu Studio where they discuss this and many other issues.

I thought the videos were pretty good and worth the time to watch.
There are probably a million other YT videos as well since this is a very popular printer.

Another little update,

Today we had a visitor who was interested in 3D printing a house model based on 3D architectural CAD drawings, in his case as designed in software called Revit (another Autodesk software).

We weren't able to start an actual print just yet, as for some reason Revit didn't want to export an STL (it was an option, but was greyed out).  He'll try to get an STL and come by again.

Generally, though, I'm not sure how one would best print out a model house; in particular anything that overhangs would seem challenging; e.g. the tops of windows and doors.  But I also have very little experience with it. ^^;
