Basics of condos

[chanys]

Hi all,

Is there a website where I can learn several basic stuffs; e.g. what is plot ratio, gross floor area, how do these affect the number of units that can be built and the maximum height of buildings, what is strata-title, etc.

Please don't flame me if these have been asked and answered before; I did try to google around and search but can't really find anything.

Many thanks,
learning...

Plot ratio is the ratio used to calculate the Gross Floor Area (GFA) of a plot of land.
e.g. Land size (plot size) = 100,000 sqft. Plot ratio = 2
Therefore GFA = 100,000 sqft x plot ratio 2 = 200,000 sqft
A developer will theoretically be able to build up to 200 units of 1,000 sqft in size.

also to add ... Plot ratio will determine how high it can go ..
