Home. The word may evoke different images in our minds but for most people, it means the same, simple thing: a safe haven.
Home is not just a place to live in; it is a sanctuary where we can be ourselves stripped of all outer formalism that the outside world demands, create memories, and connect with our true selves. It is where the most important and personal things of our life find their place.
With so many expectations and variables to consider, finding the perfect home can be a daunting task. Factors such as budget, geographical area of interest, personal situation, and lifestyle all play a crucial role in the decision-making process.
Lifestyle, in particular, deserves special consideration when choosing a home because it is the factor used to navigate our way through the different property types in terms of size, room layout, furnishings, amenities, and available services. There is a property type for you that almost effortlessly fits your daily needs, lifestyle, and habits. You just have to know how to find it, and there’s no better place than Florida. The range of property types here is remarkably broad given the very high diversity of demands faced by the Sunshine State, which attracts a huge influx of people from all over the world every year (find out who are the main foreign homebuyers in Florida).

NEO’s Property Types
Single Family Home
La Single Family Home is the ideal property type for those seeking privacy, spacious personal areas, a quiet location, and complete independence.In fact, the Single Family Home has the unique feature of not sharing walls, land, entrances, or any other type of utility with anyone else. Within NEO’s real estate showcase, there are many Single Family Homes in Florida to choose from, ranging from the minimalist and clean style home designs of Verdana Landings project – a real estate development by Lennar located south of downtown Miami – to a ranch-style like the one that characterizes the Azure home design offered by Richmond American Homes which, with its 1,700 square feet of living space, meets every need and offers a low-maintenance lifestyle.
Multi Family Home
A multi family home is defined as any residential property that contains more than one housing unit. Examples of multi family homes include duplexes, townhomes, and apartment complexes. Here’s an overview of various types of multifamily housing units:
- Duplex: A duplex is a two-story house with two separate housing units, one on each floor. Although the units share one front door, each unit has its own separate entrance.
- Townhouse: In a townhouse, two families live in a single house that is separated by an interior wall. Each family purchases their unit separately, and each unit has its own separate entrance.
- Apartment complex: An apartment complex is a single structure that contains at least five or more separate housing units. Residents often share common amenities like a swimming pool, parking garage, or playground.
- Semi-detached house: Similar to a townhome, a semi-detached house is a single-family home that shares a common wall with another home.
Championsgate is a splendid example of a resort-style project that also offers Multi Family Homes. In addition to providing high-end housing, it offers a wide range of amenities, from a fitness center and various sports fields to a water park and a beautiful resort-style pool.
Townhome
Townhome is a row-style property type that has the characteristic of being independent while sharing walls with adjacent homes. Townhomes in Florida can reflect any architectural style and are available in all sizes, with layouts determined by the size of the lot on which they are located. This category includes developments such as those in Lennar’s Storey Lake or Lake Wilson in the heart of Kissimmee, just minutes away from Orlando attractions.
Condo
A condominium, or condo for short, is a type of real estate property where multiple units are owned by different individuals or entities. In a condo, each owner has their own unit and typically shares ownership of common areas such as the building exterior, hallways, and amenities like a pool or gym.
So why is buying/investing in a condominium a good idea? First, condos are typically more affordable than single-family homes, making them a great option for first-time buyers or investors looking to get into the real estate market.
Condos also offer a low-maintenance lifestyle, as exterior maintenance and landscaping are typically taken care of by the condo association. This makes them attractive to busy professionals, retirees, and anyone who wants to enjoy their home without worrying about upkeep.
Furthermore, condos are often located in desirable locations, such as urban areas with easy access to transportation, shopping, and entertainment. This makes them attractive to renters, allowing investors to generate rental income and potentially see a good return on their investment.
Finally, owning a condo can also provide access to amenities that may be out of reach for individual homeowners, such as a pool, fitness center, or 24-hour security.
On NEO – New Estate Only you have access to the most exclusive and prestigious Condos in the Sunshine State designed by excellent design teams: from the unparalleled 38-story glass tower 2000 Ocean in Miami to the unique and incomparable Vita at Grove Isle, a sanctuary of 65 exclusive condominium residences located on Grove Isle, in Coconut Grove.
Penthouse
Last but not the least! The Penthouse is a particular type of spacious apartment usually located on the top floors of elegant and prestigious buildings and skyscrapers in Florida. This property type is the authentic embodiment of luxury thanks to projects of unparalleled magnificence and sophistication, such as Full Floor Penthouse located within 2000 Ocean or the marvelous Penthouses of Marina Pointe Tower One in Tampa, or one of the exclusive and sophisticated Penthouses of the Aria Reserve project overlooking the Biscayne Bay.
The Penthouse is not simply a residence in Florida, but represents a true lifestyle, reflecting a particularly affluent and wealthy social status.
