What I have tried:

This code prints all the choices instead of one. Ex. If I put multi-family house, this gives me back the single-family house, multi-family house, and condo. I was wondering how to fix this issue.

No, it doesn't. If I copy and paste your code into an online python interpreter, all I get is an error message:

Error

[?2004l
  File "/home/main.py", line 34
    if Type == Multi-family House or multi-family house:
                            ^^^^^
SyntaxError: invalid syntax
[?2004h

And that makes sense: it expects both Multi-family and House to be variables and has no idea what to do with an instruction like this:

Python

if A = B C
   DoSomething

You probably mean something like this:

Python

if Type == "Multi-family House" or "multi-family house":

But even then, that won't work because it doesn't compare Type against both strings:

Python

if Type == "Single Family House" or Type == "single family house":

will work better.

You should probably think about what happens if the user enters something else as well: a spelling mistake perhaps? I'd be annoyed if I went to all the effort of typing "Single Family house" and it ignored it because of the type case didn't exactly match, or I added a full stop to make "Single Family House."
Consider using a menu system which allows them to type a single character or digit instead. (It'll make your testing easier as well.)
