【房屋】为什么Casa Merah 属于 Apartment，而不是Condo啊？

cat19bear

经历了这个礼拜的看房
对于 Casa Merah 的兴趣强烈上升，不过在URA 的网站上 突然发现

Casa Merah 属于 Apartment 而不是Condo
有买过的朋友知道为什么吗？ 有什么区别么？

谢谢啦！

apart 和condo没有什么太大的区别（在买卖上面，没有对外国人有任何的限制）。

只是如果是condo它的占地面积一定要大过4000m2. 而且房子也房子之间的距离也有一定的标准。condo也是有一定的设施必须有的。

casa merah还真没有研究过为什么是apart.

Apartment和Condo的区别，不起眼但专业的问题。
我研究过，一两句话说不清楚。简单地说，没有什么大的区别，可以忽略

不一定吧，URA网站上查到８月成交的一个单位 Brighton View, 总共可能２０来户，只有１个小小游泳池，健身房网球场都没有，还是walkup, 居然被归为Condominium。而Melville Park 这种１０００多户，全设施的居然是apartment。费解啊。有行家可以说说吗？

Google 来的：

A condominium development is actually similar to an apartment development, except for several factors. The additional factors are:

1. It must have common facilities, e.g. pool, tennis courts, gym, etc.;

2. The total land area of the development should be at least 4,000sq.m. or larger; and

3. It must be approved and accorded the title of "condominium" by the relevant authorities.

A condominum does not have to consist of apartments either, i.e. they may consist of landed or a mix of landed and apartments, as long as it is a strata titled project and conforming to all the above requirements.

As to foreigner ownership, the only type of residential units that foreigners are not able to purchase are landed properties, whether they be of individual titled or part of a strata development, e.g. cluster housing developments.

On the other hand, if you are a permanent resident in Singapore, you may apply to the relevant authorities for permission to purchase a landed property. Permission is given based on certain factors outlined by the authorities and is on a case to case basis.

个人觉得更贴切的解释，从一个美国人那里得来的总结：

The two major differences between the two is an Apartment building carries a single deed of trust that encompasses the properties as a whole.

A condominium carries an individual deed of trust for each unit. It is totally possible for a single purchaser to own every unit in a condominium developement and opperate it in the same manner as an apartment developement.

Often times, a developer will purchase an apartment building and convert the individual units to condominiums by bringing them up to city code and offering them for sale.

What really sets condo ownership apart from other types of ownership is you will not own a specific area of land, instead, you will own a percentage of the land as a whole. For example, .72% of the total land area plus .72% of all improvements and areas considered "common area" those places, clubhouse, pool, etc... that are available to all owners and their guests.
