Strange, I thought the thread starter's question was a construction question, constructing a 1-bedroom into a 2-bedroom and renting it out as a 2-bedroom.

It's not about construction really since it would be in an apartment and my options for converting a living space into a bedroom are limited. I'd be getting a roommate to share the rent with who would be living in the 'converted' space.

I can of course be done. I would not do it unless you know the person well or its a short term situation. Even so, I'd be very careful screening room mates. There are some nuts out there. Also if things go sour people like to tatle tale on the person renting and get them in trouble if anything is not up to code.
