businesses may own residential properties for rental or investment purposes,
which will then turn the property into commercial property. Shopping malls,
supermarkets, offices, industrial and manufacturing facilities are some
examples of commercial property.

or apartment. A residential property can be multi-family unit with various
apartments that are owned or rented by different individuals
