That's because if the "belongs_to" is on the company models, it's no
longer a polymorphic relationship. At that point it's just a regular
one-to-one relationship, like the following example. Each of the
companies has a foreign key to Person.

class RealStateCompany
belongs_to :user
end

class ConstructionCompany
belongs_to :user
end

class NaturalPerson
belongs_to :user
end

class User
has_one :real_state_company
has_one :construction_company
has_one :natural_person
end

This works. Reversing the relationship also works. Just depends on how
you want to design it and where you want the foreign keys.
