Can someone tell me what the S-Det/End Unit means on the FNMA 1004 under general description. I know End Unit means it is an end unit, but what does S-Det mean?

Thanks in advance,

Aaron Lambert

PS an underwriter wants me to include a definition.
 
Semi-detached-End Unit

For something like a row house, or attached townhouse on the end unit that owns the land.
 
or 1/2 of a duplex.

Does FNMA have a site that goes through the 1004 and defines exactly what everything means? I would really like to refer this underwriter to it.

Half a duplex where I live is either the uppper or lower floor of a home that is converted to two units. Usually implies a rowhouse with 2 units.

I read that 1/2 duplex thread alot. :rof:

I'm waiting to hear "earthen shelter accomodating raised ranch" to describe a dugout basement without a floor or walls. :fiddle:

[SIZE=-1]SYLLABICATION:[/SIZE]ir·re·gard· [SIZE=-1]ADVERB:[/SIZE]Nonstandard Regardless. [SIZE=-1]ETYMOLOGY:[/SIZE]Probably blend of irrespective and regardless. [SIZE=-1]USAGE NOTE:[/SIZE]Irregardless is a word that many mistakenly believe to be correct usage in formal style, when in fact it is used chiefly in nonstandard speech or casual writing. Coined in the United States in the early 20th century, it has met with a blizzard of condemnation for being an improper yoking of irrespective and regardless and for the logical absurdity of combining the negative ir– prefix and –less suffix in a single term. Although one might reasonably argue that it is no different from words with redundant affixes like debone and unravel, it has been considered a blunder for decades and will probably continue to be so.

Just goes to show how different things are in Western PA vs Rendelphia.

Semi-detached aka semi-attached simply means attached on one side only. Either half of a side by side duplex or the end unit of a row.
