What is horizontal multifamily?

A horizontal multifamily property places multiple units on the same property. In certain cases, the units share common walls; in others, they're completely separate buildings. The units usually share some amenities, like a pool or a laundry room, but unlike vertical apartments, the appeal of these features isn't the draw. Lawn and property maintenance is handled the same way as in a traditional apartment building. These properties can be relatively small but tend to be larger properties with dozens of units.

Though, rather than being built like traditional apartments where every unit takes up only a small part of a larger, multi-story building, a horizontal multifamily community is made up of several single-story duplexes and detached homes, with every rental unit having its private entrance, and, in many cases, reserved parking and a fenced-in backyard.
