I don't know, IMO a home is a home. You can buy a condo just like you can buy a house. You can buy a condo bigger than some houses.

A very big building holds more people than a very little building

What difference does that make? This is about housing prices, not capacity.

The cost of housing isn't just the price of the unit. If you need to spend an extra $500/mo on the commute, plus random budget buster repairs, a "cheap" house can be less affordable than an "expensive" one.

Those things can both apply to a condo.
