Yes @Anu.

Because things like everybody, nobody always takes a singular verb so it is "has" not "have".

Must is used for compulsion but necessary has already used as a compulsion in first part, so it will not repeat.

Indefinite pronouns always take a singular form of verb.

So instead of "have", there will be "has".

According to subjunctive mood, "have a house".

I agree @Shane.

Both "should" and "must" are similar in meaning except that "must" is a much stronger word as compared to "should".

If everybody is in a sentence it represents singular so we have to use has.

Is it right? Can anyone explain?
