Level=altitude?

Should houses and buildings be positioned at the correct altitude in Revit? 

 (So if the altitude is 100m above sea level, an elevation would show that ground level in the project is at this level)?

That is totally dependent on the requirements of the specific project. Many buildings are designed in relation to ground level being 0.

Drafting is a breeze and Revit doesn't always work the way you think it should.

There is no need to actually model it at the real elevation.  If you can always report the real elevation then set the level / Spot elevation / Spot coordinates to use the Survey point as the Base.

Yes, but - I would like to do a site layout and show the topography around the house.

- If you model the topo in the same file then move it down along with the survey point.
- If you model the topo in a site file then move it down after linking, then acquire coordinates.

You can do both at the same time, in the same Project - and without even breaking a sweat. Have one Level Type that reports Elevation from Survey Point (placed Sea Level) and another Level Type that reports Elevation from Project Base Point (placed at Ground Floor Level).  Levels, Spot Elevations, Contour Lines, etc., all report their elevations based their distance from their "Elevation Base" in the Project.  You can stagger the elevations of the PBP and SP in the Project.

The posts above are correct. Definitely do not recommend "moving" your model up to sea level. Using the Specify Coordinates at Point option and turning on your Survey base point display is going to get more favorable results than trying to move your model.
