RMJS sL i E e; t 4 f e-e4 DOLLAR SEflSE Buyer chooses home type and legal ownership fo'rm By Harold J. Chmara, CA Most couples hunting for a home have a prettv shrewd idea whether thev want a de- tached or semi-detached home. a townhouse or a unit in' a high-rise. But mnanv, won't realize that the van- ous physical types of homes are available through ail three legal forms of owner- ship. Here is a brief rundown on the advantages and draw- backs of each: Dollar Sense offers gen- eral financial advice by members of The Insu-. tute of Chartered Accountants of Ontario. Harold Chmara is witb Markborough Proper- dies Limited. Toronto. With freehold ownership, the oldest and most popular formn of home ownership. vou own vour home and the land und'er il, right ou:t tO the property lune. There is a great deal of satisfaction in freehold o 'wnership and reallv onlv one drawback - Wts expensive - and that's why other form., of owner- ship have evolved, especial- ly in the buig cities where many expensive freehold homes are beyond the reach of the- average Canadian family. Condominium ownership involves two types of owner- ship. You are the soie owner of vour living quarters and have exclusive right to their use, perhaps out 10 the bal- cony, corridor or backvard. But you also own a share'in such common facilities as drivewavs, hallwavs, swim. ming pool, tennis court, sauna, grassed areas and parking lots. As well as paying our principal, interest and prop- erty taxes, you must pay a monthlv maintenance tee for.the upkeep of the facili- lies vou share with vour neigbors. While there is less privacy than in a freehold home . the atmosphere is dloser to that of a rented apartment or townhouse -- this is offset by the fact that there is no landlord to-cloud your life. In addition, such amenities as a swimming pool and teri- nis court are things it likelv would not be possible -10 own with the saine monthh- outlav by going the freehold rou te. With the. housing co-oper. ative, vou do not own vour living quarters although vou have exclusive rights to them and can't be evicîed.) What vou own is a share in the housing corporation that owns the co.op's îown- houses or apartment-style units, and this gives vou a sav in shared decisions.'
