Twin home info please? Noise, neighbors, etc...?

I am a first time home buyer and could easily afford a twin home, but I don't know much about them. I know the market is not great, but I'd rather buy and build some equity than continue to rent. To clarify, I would own half the house and live in that half, I would not own the other half. I'm adding a web address for clarity,

Any help or info is good!

    You will have to examine each property you look at for noise issues, since it is the construction type of the dividing wall which is responsible for noise control. I am not aware of any standards in construction requiring noise control in those walls, and there are bound to be some contractors who 'cheaped out' in that wall.
