Grand Rapids? Unaffordable? Are you looking at condos downtown? Here's[0] a 3bd/2br with 1800 sq ft that admittedly is outside of downtown a bit, but is under $1000 a month. This condo [1] is more expensive, but would be totally affordable if 2 people were able to pay $1250 in rent by themselves. Both of these were on the first page of Trulia results when I searched for Grand Rapids.

- jointpdf 6y agoA condo in GR is a possibility for sure, though you have to admit the market there has gotten ridiculous in recent years. Most of the decent houses near downtown get multiple offers instantly (same in Kalamazoo). Is $1250/mo a realistic amount to charge a roommate in GR?
- jdhn 6y agoIf you really want that downtown life, then it may be realistic. It's definitely a lot cheaper than a corresponding condo of that size in a major city.
