neutral teju : I thought condos could have 2 stories, I've certainly seen some, and there are tons of entries in the web.

they certainly can... so can "propiedad horizontal" ... which refers to the type of ownership... some condos are apartments, others are town houses...
neutral Margaret Schroeder : Condominiums can have any number of storeys.

absolutely... as I said, both "propiedad horizontal" and "condominium" refer to the form of ownership...

neutral marybro : I can confirm that in El Paso I heard this used to refer to a one floor house; out of curiosity the online research leans in support of "condominium"

Row houses, garden homes, town houses, attached houses

Nombres para departamentos en la forma de una fila de casas pegadas. En caso de que se trate de una unidad de 2 casas nada más, tienen otros nombres que varían según la región, yo las conozco como "semi-detached".

condominium (US) (or) commonhold dwelling (UK)

From the Land Registry of England/Wales:

"At present there are two main types of estates in land in England and Wales: freehold and leasehold. Commonhold is not a new estate, but a new kind of freehold ownership, and will be introduced into England and Wales by the Act, which was given Royal Assent on 1st May 2002.

Commonhold will combine freehold ownership of a unit in a development with membership of a commonhold association. The association (and consequently the unit holders) will own and be responsible for the management and upkeep of the common parts of the development. It will be an alternative to long leasehold ownership.

'Units' are the individual properties within the estate or building, such as a flat or industrial unit. The 'common parts' are the remainder of the building or estate, (such as the fabric of the building or the estate road etc.) not forming part of the units.

Commonhold is already in use in other parts of the world, where it is known by different names:

* Condominium and Community Ownership in Canada and the USA
* Law of Tenement in Scotland and
* Unit and Strata Titles in Australia and
* New Zealand."
