I have a situation where I have Model A that has a variety of properties. I have discovered that some of the properties are similar across other models. My thought was I could create Model B and Model C and have Model A be a composite with a Model B property and a Model C property.

Just trying to determine if this is the best way to handle this situation.

    It’s definitely valid in certain situations. Let’s say you have a Person class and a Company class, and they have the common properties streetNumber, streetName, postcode, etc. It makes sense to make a new model class called Address that both Person and Company contain. Inheritance is the completely wrong way to go in such a situation.
