Hello, I'm trying to make a modular realistic low poly house, but I don't know how to make them be aligned in terms of UV. Does anyone know how to align them properly without much faff?

You'd want a fixed Texel density with a common alignment
Or use world space projection
You can project from view in blender which may help get you started then you can also pin verts to keep them from my moving once you get what you want
There are also tools that can help you straighten, rectify, or align stuff

I agree, you must think of a texel ratio 1st, and you'll have to think of your textures before creating your modules if you want to use trim sheet textures. To create your modules, I suggest you use a grid ( by 10cm for ex, it's also the default parameter to move objects in Unreal) and work with snapping on grid points.

Yeah, Ubisoft wrote about figuring out your module scale in their GDC talk on assassins creed syndicate
and I think Bethesda for Fallout 4 also did a talk on modular stuff
But yeah if you're doing trim sheets check out the ...

Thank you guys, but I ended up using triplanar nodes in UE material graph, it does the job

if performce becomes an issue check out single sampler triplanar method

Do you know by any change the stat command for it?

Not sure, it's basically the number of texture samplers
default triplanar needs 3 texture samples per texture
This can do it in with one sampler at the expense of smooth interpolation (instead it uses dithering which is probably fine for your use since you look like you got mostly right angles)
