Definitions
Single
Family Homes
Single family homes remain the popular choice. Location,
size of the home and lot, and amenities affect the price.
Condominiums
In the case of condominiums, the buyer owns his or
her individual unit and a percentage of the remaining real property,
land and amenities. Unit owners belong to a homeowners' association
which charges monthly fees for the maintenance of common property.
Townhomes
In the case of townhomes, the buyer owns his or her
individual unit and the ground under that unit. Each townhome has
its own roof. Townhome owners may also belong to a homeowners' association
for maintenance of common areas and amenities.
Duplexes
Duplexes typically consist of two dwelling units
constructed as a single building. The buyer can live in one unit
and rent out the other unit.
