I live in an apartment, also known as a flat. It is a self-contained housing unit that is part of a bigger building.
nice, i also live in an apartment i think its way more comfortable than a house if you live alone
For sure. My unit is rented by my landlord. As a tenant I do not have to pay for routine repairs.
that is so nice my apartment is a 2 floor flat which has an electric elevator in the building
That saves walking up steps. Elevators, or lifts, provide vertical transportation between floors.
yep it is really helpful specially if your apartment is on the top floor
Otis Elevator Company
The Otis Elevator Company is an American company (owned by United Technologies) that develops, manufactures and markets elevators, escalators, moving walkways, and related equipment. Based in Farmington, Connecticut, Otis is the world's largest manufacturer of vertical transportation systems, principally focusing on elevators, moving walkways, and escalators. The company pioneered the development of the "safety elevator", invented by Otis in 1852, which used a special mechanism to lock the elevator car in place should the hoisting ropes fail.
Apartment
An apartment (American English), flat (British English) or unit (Australian English) is a self-contained housing unit (a type of residential real estate) that occupies only part of a building, generally on a single storey. There are many names for these overall buildings, see below. The housing tenure of apartments also varies considerably, from large-scale public housing, to owner occupancy within what is legally a condominium (strata title or commonhold), to tenants renting from a private landlord
