Newbie asks: Why not one of each?

Hello Everyone!
New Finch-owner here. I hope this is not a silly question, but I'm wondering...
Are there types of finches that would be okay in each others' company- NOT in pairs of the same type? For example, could a person house in one generous cage: a cordon bleu, an owl, a green singer and a society finch? I'm imagining all females or all males. Could their social needs be met this way- could they become friends? Or does each kind only ever really bond with its own distinct breed?
The reason I ask is: I know I will only be able to ever fit one habitat into my small living space, and it's so hard to choose! They are all so pretty and interesting. I'd really like a variety.
Thanks for your advice.
