He has the best house ...

[navi]

Which is correct:

1-He has the best house of all of us.
2-He has the best house of any of us.
3-He has the best house of any one of us.
4-He has the best house of every one of us.

1, 2 and 3 seem correct to me. But i would suggest the use of ''out'' after ''house''.

1-He has the best house out of all of us.
2-He has the best house out of any of us.
3-He has the best house out of any one of us.

Which is correct:

1-He has the best house of all of us.
2-He has the best house of any of us.
3-He has the best house of any one of us.
4-He has the best house of every one of us.

You could say
2 He has a better house than any of us —> this actually means "the best of those being discussed".

I agree with Maxio, I don't know why but "He has a better house than any of us." sounds more natural to my ear. Here a comparative tone is good enough to serve the purpose.

I think that 1 and 2 are ok, and that "out of" is better.

I'd be interested to know why Maxiogee thought 3 was wrong.

For me

3-He has the best house of any one of us.

should be "He has a better house than any one of us" because you are effectively comparing 2 people as opposed to the group (eg him and the any one person we care to pick).

1, 2, 3 are correct, but I would (personally) say #1
