Here rule applied is Parallelism.

Since clause after comma has plural subject "owners", so one before comma shud also use plural subject "owners". So options left C and E.
Well why dont we match "apartments - apartments" , also look at...their dwellings...sounds correct.

So My vote for "C"

Cheers!!

Your mistake was still in the parallelism.

Whereas owners of condominium apartments have free and clear title to their dwellings, owners of cooperative apartments have shares in a corporation that owns a building and leases apartments to them. - Parallel


Condominium apartment owners have a title to their dwelling that is free and clear, while owners of cooperative apartments have shares in a corporation that owns a building and leases apartments to them. - Not Parallel
