I am busy today so can't give a lot of input... but I opened your file briefly and see there are many problems.

1) The scale is completely wrong. In the image I'm attaching, the green box represents the scale of a player model. Unless it's a part of the 3d skybox or your mod settings have a really unusual setting for scale, it's way off on scale.

2) The building is a single mesh. This object cannot export as valid brush geometry. It would need broken up into many pieces to be a valid VMF file.

3) As it stands, it should be exported as a model, not a level. Use Wall Worm Model Tools for that.

4) If you want this to be a full level, you need to break it up into all of its consituent parts (#2 above) and each must be convex. You then have to TAG all those pieces as brush geometry with Anvil (Under Wall Worm > Wall Worm Anvile) in the Tags tab.

5) Also, if this is to be compiled into BSP, you need to seal the level. This design is not sealed.
