i'm looking for a house in California, what's the difference between a condominium house, a residential house, and a townhouse?
A condominium, or condo, is the form of housing tenure and other real property where a specified part of a piece of real estate (usually of an apartment house) is individually owned, while use of and access to common facilities in the piece such as hallways, heating system, elevators, exterior areas is executed under legal rights associated with the individual ownership and controlled by the association of owners that jointly represent ownership of the whole pieceA townhouse, or town house, is a type of medium-density housing in cities, usually but not necessarily terraced (row housing) or semi-detachedA modern town house is often one with a small footprint on multiple floorsThe term originally referred to the city residence of a member of the nobility, as opposed to their country seatResidential property is that in neighborhoods with single family dwelling.
