You're ignoring apartment blocks and similar high density developments.
I don't follow, are you suggesting it's impossible to own a single apartment in a block? As someone who lives in an apartment I own without owning the entire building, I can tell you that's definitely false. You don't need a landlord to make high density housing to work.
So nobody owns the building?
The people who own the apartments. Individual units have individual owners, shared areas have shared ownership by whoever owns the units unless specified otherwise. Maintenance of common areas is the shared responsibility of all owners.
