I'm guessing from your description and the snippent above that one or
more of the values may be array data and/or iterable? such as "types"
and "members"?

As such, you'll need to aggregate those values to build up the final
output. As examples:

 * If they are enumerated arrays:

  <?php foreach($this->houses as $house) :

      $types   = implode(', ', $house->types);
      $members = implode(', ', $house->members); ?>
      <tr>
          <td><?php echo $this->escape($types);?></td>

          <td><?php echo $this->escape($house->ownership);?></td>
          <td><?php echo $this->escape($house->income);?></td>

          <td><?php echo $this->escape($members);?></td>
     </tr>
  <?php endforeach ?>

 * If they are associative arrays or objects:

  <?php foreach($this->houses as $house) :

      // Assuming types is enumerative
      $types   = implode(', ', $house->types);

      // Handling members
      $members = array();
      foreach ($house->members as $member) {
          $members[] = $member->firstName . ' ' . $member->lastName;
      }
      $members = implode(', ', $members); ?>
      <tr>
          <td><?php echo $this->escape($types);?></td>

          <td><?php echo $this->escape($house->ownership);?></td>
          <td><?php echo $this->escape($house->income);?></td>

          <td><?php echo $this->escape($members);?></td>
     </tr>
  <?php endforeach ?>

You could also pass them to a partial to render:

   <?php echo $this->partial('members', $house->members) ?>

and put the logic in your partial.
