Housing Types
|
Single family detached
A freestanding home which sits on its own lot and is occupied by only one family.
 Semi-detached 
A single family home that is joined to another one by a common wall.
Duplex

Link or carriage 
Houses, freehold or condominium, joined by garages or carports which provide access between the front and rear yards.
Builders sometimes join basement walls so that link houses appear to be single family homes on small lots.
Highrise condominium 
Multi-story residential building containing condominium units. A condominium is not a type of house but a form of ownership.
Mobile or manufactured 
A factory-built, single family dwelling that is transported to your chosen location and placed on a foundation.
