DEFINITIONS - REAL ESTATE TYPES
We call a VILLA every house that is built in an architecturally beautiful way. It has a view of the sea, lake, river, mountains… It has additional facilities, such as - swimming pool, beautiful garden, some sports facilities ...
The term HOUSE means - a built residential building that is not a villa, nor a stone house, nor a building with apartments for rent to tourists, nor a business building. No special facilities.
The house in the construction of which the basic material was used - stone - is a STONE HOUSE. It is especially important that it was built in an authentic Adriatic style. A complete renovation is often needed.
APARTMENT is a part of a building that was built mainly for tourist purposes. It is mostly used only occasionally, mostly in the summer tourist season. It can also be a small detached building, built mainly for rent to tourists.
SUITE is a part of a building that was built mainly for permanent residence. Mostly in cities. In addition, it differs from the apartment in that the apartment can be larger than 100m2 and even 200m2.
COMMERCIAL was built for the purpose of economic activity. E.g. - offices, hotels, restaurants, shops, cafes, large halls, etc.…
BUILDING PLOT is land on which it can be built. It is located in such an urban zone, where construction is allowed. There are different construction zones. For example - exclusively for residential construction, exclusively for tourist construction, exclusively for business construction, etc.
LAND - is any land other than construction land. These are mostly agricultural lands, on which ordinary buildings cannot be built. The construction of facilities that will serve agricultural production is allowed, but under special conditions.
