residential sales

Selling living spaces

Residential sales refers to the buying and selling of homes and other dwellings—houses, condominiums, townhouses, and similar properties where people live.

The term distinguishes this market from commercial real estate, which involves office buildings, retail spaces, and industrial properties.
