Is it possible to have such a case in phoenix or which is the best way to structure this

resources "/landlords", LandlordController do
  resources "/houses", HouseController do
   resources "/units", UnitController
  end
end

Yes it is possible, but it is not recommended to have too much levels of nesting.

What You could do is… break into smaller nesting.

resources "/landlords", LandlordController do
  resources "/houses", HouseController
end

resources "/houses", HouseController do
 resources "/units", UnitController
end

Or use composite object, eg, treat house and units together, and use nested forms.
