example_list<-list(tracking<-c("house"), 
house_type<-c("brick", "wood"), sizes<-c(1600, 1800, 2000, 2400))
example_list
cost_limits<-c(200000.25, 350010.15)
example_list[[4]]<-cost_limits
example_list
# you forgot the left side here
# c(example_list,list(CostStuff=cost_limits))

example_list <- c(example_list,list(CostStuff=cost_limits))
example_list$CostStuff
example_list[[5]]
