Residential Properties

Posted under General

The term real estate does not limit itself to land, land and land; there are various types of real estates. There are the attached or multi-unit dwellings, the semi-detached dwellings, the single- family detached dwellings and the portable dwellings.

The first one, the attached multi-unit dwellings could take in four possible forms: the apartment, which are homes that are just separated by lockable doors; multi-family house, separated from other homes by floors; terraced houses, which are also separated by walls (which also serves as the walls of the neighboring house; there are no spaces in between); and the finally, the condominiums, which are like multi-family houses but are jointly owned.

The next type of real property is the semi- detached dwellings; here, there would be one house that is divided by two and are just divided by one shared wall; it would be like the terrace houses, but this is only a duplex. The next dwelling is the single-family detached home; this is the classic look of the real estate where there is a house and a backyard. The last classification is the portable home; this is also classified as: Mobile homes, house boats and even tents. These are the many types of real properties one may own.
