Condominium status of private dwelling, category

Condominium status refers to whether the private dwelling is part of a condominium. A condominium is a residential complex in which dwellings are owned individually while land and common elements are held in joint ownership with others.

Private dwelling refers to a separate set of living quarters with a private entrance either from outside the building or from a common hall, lobby, vestibule or stairway inside the building. The entrance to the dwelling must be one that can be used without passing through the living quarters of some other person or group of persons.
