Answer #1

you rent apartments…they usually arent that nice but some are…condos you pay for so they are yours and you have a mortgage…they are veyr nice like two three story. penthouses are what millionaires live in …like the top of a newyork city building…a very very nice apartment that they bought.

Answer #2

You can rent condos too. An apartment is usually next to other apartments with a hallway or similar in front of the front door, like hotel rooms. Condos open up to the outdoors and have a walkway and maybe plants, but they’re still significantly smaller than a house. They might be right next to other condos or separate but in the same general area as them. A penthouse is a nice apartment on the top floor.

But what’s more confusing is that technically blueeyed is right: apartment = rent, condo = own. But I hear about people renting condos from their owners all the time.
