The difference between residential apartments and ordinary houses

Differences in building structure, living environment and management methods.

1, architectural structure difference: Residential apartments are usually multi-storey buildings, which are composed of multiple units, and each unit has multiple households. Ordinary residence is an independent single building, generally only one household. The building structure of residential apartments is complex, so it is necessary to consider the living needs of multiple households, such as ventilation, lighting, sound insulation and so on. Ordinary houses can meet the needs of individual families more flexibly.

2. Differences in living environment: The living environment of residential apartments is relatively more concentrated, and the distance between residents is close, which is prone to problems such as noise and odor. At the same time, the public areas of residential apartments, such as elevators and corridors, also need to be cleaned and maintained frequently, otherwise it will easily affect the quality of life of residents. Ordinary houses are relatively more private, the distance between residents is far, and the living environment is more quiet and comfortable.

3. Differences in management methods: The management methods of residential apartments are generally the responsibility of property companies, which will maintain and manage public areas, such as cleaning, security and maintenance. At the same time, the property management company will also manage residents' lives, such as collecting property fees and handling residents' complaints. Ordinary houses are managed by the owners themselves, and the owners need to be responsible for the maintenance and management of the houses themselves, and also need to handle the relationship with their neighbors.

Residential apartment is a real estate term that combines the characteristics of apartments and ordinary houses. This kind of residence is usually located in big cities, mostly high-rise buildings.

Ordinary residence refers to a house built for the purpose of living in accordance with the local general civil residential building standards. At present, most of them are multi-storey houses and high-rise houses. Ordinary apartment is a kind of collective residence, and apartment is the most extensive form of commercial real estate investment.
