Vacation ownership

MUD/PUDs are both residential and blank in the same building or group of buildings. Think of a retirement community with shopping, recreation—and, of course, the residential units—all in one fell swoop. It has convenience, of course, but also security, which is important for older people.

commercial

Ownership in a PUD townhome (and detached home) consists of a lot or parcel of land, the structure built upon it, and use of the blank, as opposed to PUD condominium ownership, where all land is commonly owned and maintained.

common area

Townhomes, also called townhouses, are a type of blank homeownership.

common interest

When a condo building is built, the developer creates a condominium blank, which has a description of the property, each unit, how the building is governed, and how dues are assessed.

declaration

You can own your condo in any way you want—in severalty, as joint tenancy, as tenants in common, or tenants by the blank.

Shareholders don't own any real estate, just shares in the corporation.

Co-ops

Condos (Condos are distinguishable from other types of housing by the fact that the owner owns a unit within the structure, but not the structure itself or the land, and the structure is an attached, residential building.)

Mixed-Use Development, MUD

Blank are distinguishable from other types of housing by the fact that they have a mix of residential and commercial uses.

Timeshare use

Ownership of property allows the purchaser to use it for periods of time during the year.

Timeshares

Co-op residents each have a blank lease (a lease from the corporation) for the units they occupy. The lease provides unit owners with the right to use the property, to live there, and to share in the benefits of living there.

proprietary

Many owners like that condominium ownership is ownership in blank—unlike a cooperative where all you own is a share in the cooperative's corporation.

real property

Co-ops may look just like condos. They're often in the same types of buildings and may even be on the same street or in the same block as a condo complex. And both are located in attached, blank buildings (buildings joined to another building on at least one side).

residential

Co-ops are distinguishable from other types of housing by the fact that the owner owns blank instead of real estate, and the structure is an attached, residential building.

shares

Because condos are real property transactions, ownership rights are fee blank, which is the biggest and broadest form of ownership available.

simple

Co-op ownership isn't fee blank ownership, like condo ownership would be, or your traditional real estate purchase.
