It isn't going to hurt your game but it won't really improve it. I lived in a pretty shitty house recently and my room resembled a prison cell. The mattress was the most uncomfortable thing in the world; it creaked and metal coils were sticking out at the top. But it didn't put off either of the girls that came back. In fact it was entertaining and amusing that I lived here.
In my situation my shitty house didn't matter at all. The reason - Congruency. I was only in town for a month and a half, visiting friends and clients. It was a room in a friends room which came up as her house mate was off travelling for the summer. When the girls mentioned how shitty my room was, I agreed. I wasn't embarrassed. I didn't have to spin some story 'Oh this is just till I move into my new place'. It was a shit hole, but I was only staying a little while so I didn't mind. I was completely genuine. If anything it might of even helped my game. My story was genuine, my reason consistent, everything added up. I had congruency so the girls were completely comfortable. And the fact my room was a shit hole meant I didn't mind spilling tequila, smoking in my bed etc so we ended up having our own fun private party
Here's an example that shows how the why is the most important thing. Imagine you are a girl and go back to a guys house. He lives with his parents and works in KFC. Hmm not particularly high value. But what if he was just doing this to save up money to travel the world. That's kind of inspiring right? What about if a guy has a sick pad and a brand new BMW but complains and moans all day about how much he hates his job. That's not going to be as inspiring to a woman as a surfer who lives in a beach shack but follows his passion in life. In an ideal world you would merge the two - money and passion. Think famous musicians, actors, sports men etc.

Yeah if it makes you happy and is a priority (it seems like it perhaps is not) then go for it. But don't do it to impress ladies, and don't do it if it will leave you with no spare money to pursue your passions in life. What's more important is finding some cool house mates. Whenever possible live with girls. Single guy living with 4 blokes or guy living with a couple of chicks. Social proof at work here. Also cool house mates will bring friends round and go to fun events which is great for your social life.
