Buyer Patel is looking at a suburban house in Toronto that looks detached but has a below-grade wall attached to another home. What type of dwelling is this?

Duplex
Linked dwelling
Semi-detached dwelling
Stacked townhouse
Townhouse
Detached dwelling

The correct answer is: Duplex

The correct answer is A. Duplex. In this scenario, the description provided indicates that Buyer Patel is looking at a dwelling that is partially attached to another home with a below-grade wall. A duplex is a type of dwelling that consists of two separate units in the same building, either side by side or one on top of the other. Each unit has its own separate entrance, kitchen, and bathroom facilities. This situation is different from a semi-detached dwelling, where the two units share a common wall, or a linked dwelling, where the units are connected by a garage or roof. Stacked townhouses are multiple units stacked on top of each other, and townhouses are typically a row of identical houses sharing walls on both sides. Detached dwellings are stand-alone structures with no shared walls.
