1. What's the difference between an apartment and a house?

1. Functionally, on the basis of ensuring the basic living function, apartments should pay more attention to the completeness, comfort, service and structural rationality of functions. First of all, the area of single apartment should reach 120 square meters, so as to do better in indoor functional zoning. If the area is too small, it will not reflect the zoning, and the comfort and functionality will be greatly reduced. Moreover, the space area of the apartment is also large, mainly reflected in the height. Some early houses did not emphasize the height problem. The flat area of the apartment is large, and if the height is not enough, it will easily make people feel depressed, so the apartment generally requires a height of more than 2.8 meters. In terms of facilities, the apartment should meet the standards of 24-hour elevator and 24-hour hot water.

2. In terms of building quality and building standards, apartments are basically slab buildings, which are well ventilated and can enjoy sufficient sunshine. There is no essential difference between other apartments and houses. Ordinary houses are generally dominated by family living, with 2 rooms and 3 rooms, with different quality grades. Residents should pay attention to living environment, greening, schools and other supporting facilities. Because it is a long-term residence, it is also important to care about property fees, utilities and other expenses, and convenient transportation. However, compared with business people, there is still a certain tolerance, allowing new sites to improve related living facilities.

The apartment is commercial, and the water and electricity charges are calculated according to the business. The land use period is 50 years, and it is not allowed to sign an account. Residential water and electricity charges are calculated by civil use, and the land use period is 70 years. The taxes and land transfer fees paid by apartments are higher than those paid by houses, and the price of apartments will be much higher than that of houses.

4. The common feature of the apartment is that it is located in the central area, and it generally appears as a fully decorated small apartment. Guests are mainly long-term business customers, who value convenient geographical location and quasi-hotel-style living experience, and the price is much lower than that of hotels.

5. However, there are few products that belong to large-sized luxury goods, and the customer base is only high-level long-term business guests who live with their families. This kind of people usually only live for one and a half years, so they care about hotel-style enjoyment, and they don't care whether there is gas supply or not, and whether water and electricity are cheap or not. Due to some investment attributes, small apartment and low total price are very important characteristics.
