Condominium Alternatives: Mixed and Non-Traditional Uses, State Bar of Texas Annual Advanced Real Estate Strategies Course, presented by Bob Burton and Kristi Stotts 

For the practitioner and layperson alike, the word "condominium" often conjures up the image of a mid or high rise attached residential project. A project similar to a traditional rental project with balconies, elevators, corridors, and common recreational facilities, the only real difference being that the living space is owned rather than rented. This image belies the power of the condominium form of ownership. The power lies in flexibility. The condominium form of ownership is not just for residential projects. It can be used to secure entitlements, accommodate seemingly incompatible uses, and solve tricky structural issues. It is one tool in the real estate toolbox.

Search Tips:

You may use the wildcard symbol (*) as a root expander.  A search for "anti*" will find not only "anti", but also "anti-trust", "antique", etc.

Entering two terms together in a search field will behave as though an "OR" is being used.  For example, entering "Antique Motorcars" as a Client Name search will find results with either word in the Client Name.

Operators

AND and OR may be used in a search.  Note: they must be capitalized, e.g., "Project AND Finance." 

The + and - sign operators may be used.  The + sign indicates that the term immediately following is required, while the - sign indicates to omit results that contain that term. E.g., "+real -estate" says results must have "real" but not "estate".

To perform an exact phrase search, surround your search phrase with quotation marks.  For example, "Project Finance".

Searches are not case sensitive.
