When deciding on the type of home you’d like to purchase, there are several types of residential buildings to choose from. In the view of the project manager for residential construction, your purchase should be based according to your lifestyle, budget and requirements. The choice of a particular type of housing is dependent on locally available materials, skills and levels of technology.
We are providing you a handy guide to some of the residential buildings you can opt for.
Single-Family Home-
Single family homes are homes built on a single lot, with no shared walls. Sometimes there’s a garage, attached or detached. A single family detached home has open space on all four sides and is not attached to any other structure. These type of homes are separated from other structures with walls that are extended from the ground to the roof. Single-family homes tend to offer more privacy and space than other types of homes, and frequently come with private front and back yards.
Condominium or condos-
A condominium is one of a group of housing units where each homeowner owns their individual unit space, and all the dwellings share ownership of areas of common use. What all condos have in common is that they share common areas—such as yards, garages or gyms—with other units that the condo owners don't have to maintain themselves, making home upkeep that much easier.
Townhouse-
A townhouse is usually a part of a community association, each person has his own separate living space. Townhomes usually have multiple floors—sometimes as many as three or four in one unit for one common family. Some townhomes are attached to twin units, but each owner still has exclusive access to all the floors in his own home. Unlike duplexes or fourplexes, however, each townhouse is individually owned. The primary difference between townhouses and row houses is in how they’re arranged.
Current global trends indicate that the newer construction of world housing is being dominated primarily by two types of construction, masonry houses and reinforced concrete buildings.
