In the US they are usually governed as real estate legally. You can resell it, but most people aren’t interested in paying the maintenance fees. You’ll find all sorts of timeshares out there being resold for 1$ because they just don’t want to pay the maintenance fee anymore.
Pretty sure there’s not a per-domain setting for that. If you have HTTPS-Only Mode turned on in the settings it will always try to use HTTPS first and present a warning before switching to HTTP.
If you want to continue using HTTPS you can setup your own CA certificate to sign certificates for your .LAN domain names. All you need to do then is add the CA certificate to your trusted certificates in Firefox and the signed certificate to the device hosting the HTTPS service.
EDIT: TIL there an exclusion feature. Neat. I didn’t see this on Firefox for Android though. https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/https-only-prefs
