Read these cases together.
Mt Isthmus places several hosting arrangements around one four-bedroom house, including a conditional own-team model. Rahimoana sits within a five-villa estate and distinguishes included hospitality from additional services. Both cases make the service agreement a central part of what a private residence means in use.
The architectural image is only one part of that comparison. A smaller party can retain exclusive occupation at Mt Isthmus, while Rahimoana’s general inclusions and a dated promotion use different language. Following the exact arrangement clarifies who supports the household and which offer is actually being described.
