If you can only afford a one bedroom condo then put up some temp walls or create a wall with book cases, etc in the living room and turn the 1 bedroom condo into a two "bedroom" condo with no common area, then get a roommate for the actual bedroom.Then in about a year or two, rent out the condo and at that point maybe you are ready to qualify to buy a house that's in a good neighborhood and then you move into that. 

I don't look at IRR these days cause everyone is manipulating it by saying they are going to do an unrealistic refinance in year 2-3 which makes the IRR go up from 14 to 18% magically.

Hi, I’m hoping someone can provide some insight or opinion on purchasing a higher priced townhouse in the Phoenix Biltmore area.Here’s the details:I currently own a condo in Tempe,AZ that I recently rented out and My tentative plans are to keep buying properties, living in them for a year or 2 and then renting them out.The new place are that I’m looking at purchasing is new construction to be finished in a month or 2.

the best solution is to duct some heat over, if thats not possible, get some heat tape and a 35 +/- degree electrical block available at menards, it plugs in and turns on when the temp drops to 35 degrees and turns off when above 35 degrees, they are like $12 pluse some heat tape, ask in the plumbing department.
