How do I go about finding somewhere to live?

Question

My boyfriend, his friend, and I are planning to live together for the next year, starting as soon as possible. Currently I live with the boyfriend's family and our friend lives with his parents.

We would ideally like to rent a house but we may have to settle for a flat.

What is the average rent per month in places like Stratford-upon-Avon?

I am currently looking for a job, and it will not be something well paid as this is a gap year before university. My boyfriend and our friend earn roughly £230 a week each and think they can afford to live independently.

What do you think?

And where should I look to find somewhere to live?

Answer 1

I think you should all pitch in and find an apartment. Rent.com is the perfect place to search. You put in the number of bedrooms you are looking for, the price range, and area and it will give you the best listings available. I have used it 2 times to find a place. Also wants you find a place you let rent.com know and they will give you $100 it takes about a month to receive it. Try it..it's FREE!!  

Answer 2
