townhome: Condominium or Townhome? Can you tell? - 03/31/09 03:30 AM
The distinction between condominiums and townhomes escapes a lot of folks. And many North Carolina agents, too. So I did a little Real Estate Show test from photos of buildings in Raleigh, Cary, and Apex, NC.
Play the real estate show below and on a piece of paper indicate whether each of the 15 structures in the photo is a condominium or townhome.
See, you can't really tell by looking at a building.
You MUST look at the legal description to determine whether you are looking at a condominium or a townhome.
The difference is not the … (6 comments)

townhome: AR has ceased to grow? 89,376 members? - 06/06/08 10:23 AM
89,376 seems to be the count for a several days now, at least since Casey Brischle wrote his piece.
Members on line has shown growth, but the member count is frozen at 89,376.

Or do the AR fellers just need to wind up the clock and get it ticking again?
Hmmm.  89,376 89376
$89,376....  An affordable condo or townhome around Raleigh and Cary.
8, 9, 3, 7, 6.... Play them in the Pick 5.
89,376...  A light turn out at a Big 10 football game

townhome: Cary NC Real Estate Adventures: We'll go around the world to get the comps we want! - 12/04/07 11:34 PM
We popped into the townhome, and my client said she could be interested in it, although it needs heavy redecoration.
