    Not the 2 story unit adjacent to me.

    If you cut our unit in half, they're mirrored but identical.

    It's slightly worse in the master bedroom, but the second bedroom window has the same condensation issue and is unoccupied. It's on the second story as well, and the 2 closets of the bedrooms share a wall. Otherwise the windows are separated by 2 doors and 30-35 feet.

    Are you sure they are thermopane windows ? ie you can see 2 pieces ( or 3 ) of glass with an air space between the panes ?

    Agree no vapour barrier under the slab is likely in an old house and could lead to excess interior moisture drive towards the heated space

    I can take a pic of the window.. I assumed they're double pane as they have those white vinyl strips running through the inside of them.

    I can't see the upper roof hardly at all, but plan to be in the attic sometime this weekend and can look at what kind of venting is used.
