Types of Housing Before Buying Your Dream House

As an area of shelter and gathering with family, shelter is a primary human need. Not surprisingly, when choosing a residence we have to consider many things. Plus there are several types of housing in Indonesia.

Developers often provide frills such as clusters, residences, to townhouses. These terms may still be foreign to those of you who are looking for a first place to live.

If you decide to buy a house from a developer, be sure to understand the types of housing so you can choose according to your wishes. Generally, there are four housing styles that developers often offer, namely clusters, residences, and townhouses. To be able to tell the difference, see this article to the end.

Cluster House

Cluster houses are a type of sited residence consisting of tens to hundreds of housing units. Generally, cluster dwelling styles have a uniform size and shape, where each residence is only separated by a concrete wall without a fence.

There are several characteristics of cluster houses that are the main attraction, so this housing style is quite a favorite for many families. One of them is a complete service that can be used together. Generally, cluster residences have green open area services, playgrounds, and sports fields.

In addition to complete services, cluster housing is often chosen for couples who already have children. This type of residence has limited access so that not just anyone can enter without permission. There is only one access in and out (one gate system) along with 24-hour surveillance and added by CCTV. So, even though the residence is not equipped with a fence, the area is always safe thanks to a good security process.

Residence House

Residential housing is a residence consisting of several residences in one area. Generally residences are located in sub-urban or suburban areas so that the environment is still classified as beautiful and pollution-free. You can find residence housing in Jakarta’s buffer zones, such as Depok, Tangerang, Bekasi and Bogor. The advantage of a residence is that the price is more affordable than a cluster.

Housing Types Townhouses

Other types of housing are townhouses. Compared to clusters and residences, the number of residential units in townhouses is very limited, which is around 10 to 30 units. Townhouses are suitable for those of you who want a quiet, exclusive and not crowded environment. Initially, townhouses were built to meet the living area needs of expatriates. However, at this time many developers are building townhouses in the city center.
