The document defines a condominium as a form of housing tenure where an individual owns a specified part of a property while having shared access to common areas that are managed by an owners' association. It notes the main difference between a condominium and apartment is the ownership structure, as condominiums allow individual unit ownership compared to apartment rental. The document also outlines various characteristics of condominiums including their structural forms and typical amenities owned individually versus those shared among owners.
2. ABSTRACT
Definition of a CONDOMINIUM
A condominium, or condo, is the form of housing
tenure and other real property where a specified part of a
piece of real estate (usually of an apartment house) is
individually owned while use of and access to common
facilities in the piece such as hallways, heating
system, elevators, exterior areas is executed under legal
rights associated with the individual ownership and
controlled by the association of owners that jointly represent
ownership of the whole piece.
Colloquially, the term is often used to refer to the
unit itself in place of the word "apartment". A condominium
may be simply defined as an "apartment" that the resident
"owns" as opposed to rents.
3. Difference between a Condominium and an Apartment Complex
The difference between a condominium and
an apartment complex is purely legal: there is no way to know a
condominium from an apartment simply by looking at or visiting the
building. What defines a condominium is the form of ownership. The
same building developed as a condominium (and sold in individual
units to different owners) could actually be built someplace else as an
apartment building (the developers would retain ownership
and rent individual units to different tenants). As a practical
matter, though, builders tend to build condominiums to higher quality
standards than apartment complexes because of
the differences between the rental and sale markets. And a
Condominium is also an “apartment” but the only difference is that
customers only rent the unit but in a Condominium, you can own it.
4. Characteristics of a CONDOMINIUM
Condominiums can take many forms
structurally. They may be like regular
apartments, or they may be townhouses. In
fact, many are converted apartment houses or
townhouse complexes. Some condominium
communities actually offer individual standalone
houses; these communities look like typical housing
tracts, but again the residents own only the air
space inside their homes. Even though each may
have a fair amount of property, that property is
managed by the association and not the individual
owners.
5. QUALITIES of a CONDOMINIUM:
•Hardwood Floors - for easier cleanup
•Ceramic tiles in kitchen, bathrooms, and on
laundry room floors
•Granite countertops in the kitchen - makes quick
breakfast cleanup a breeze
•Crown Moulding and high ceilings for a sense of
space
•Entry Intercom and Security System
•Laundry Room with appliances, so there's no
trudging to a Laundromat
•Large balcony for relaxing after work
•Parking Garage access or reserved on-site parking
•Storage Units for bikes and other equipment

persons in the year 2000 up from 226,883 in 1995, giving the city an

million population of the region. At the national level, Baguio City shared
0.33 percent to the Philippine population of 76.5 million as recorded in the
Census 2000.
12. POPULATION GROWTH OF FOREIGNERS IN BAGUIO
In Baguio, the influx of Foreigners has caught some attention.
According to the National Bureau of Immigration, Baguio now is host
to almost 10,000 foreigners. It has been reported that most of
foreigners stay for two months during their vacation from school
abroad. After which, a huge number would start to study full-time in
Baguio universities.
B. PRIMARY ECONOMY
The primary economy of Baguio City is its educational centres
of which it has in excess of seven colleges and universities as well as a
plethora of trade and technical schools. Estimates are that these
schools compose in excess of one hundred thousand students. The
secondary source of income for the residents is its character as the
commercial hub in the province of Benguet. Many of the agricultural
and mining goods produced in Benguet go to Baguio City for central
distribution.
13. C. EDUCATION
Baguio is a university town. It is considered as the centre of education in
the entire North Luzon. There are eight institutions of higher education in Baguio
City, two of which are ranked as being among the country's top ten. Saint Louis

Korean Academies. There are about 30 "registered" ones with an average of 50
students each, excluding Foreigners charging their countrymen for "home stay"
(board and lodging while studying in the universities) the prices of real estate rentals
has been driven up pretty high. To be able to house so many students because
it is a lucrative business on their part, they have resorted, not only to rent the
large, elegant vacation homes, but to rent all the small hotels and inns around the
city as well.
