My FH and I will be getting married very soon. We have been looking for a house for almost a year but in this market, it is very difficult to find something. We have been consistently looking and making offers but we keep getting beat out for cash offers. We were really hoping that we would have a house by now but unfortunately we have not. We both live with our parents and stay at each other’s houses whenever we can. We are going to continue doing this until we find a house but it may mean some nights apart. I feel like everyone has something negative to say regarding our situation but we are trying so hard to find a house. We don’t really want to rent because then we can’t save as much plus we don’t want to be stuck in a lease. Any advice or similar situations? What did you do?

One friend started in a trailer home which gives some possibility for ownership but then you still pay space rental and maybe a community fee. Renting through family owned units or at least not the large apartment complexes may be a bit better than the large rental companies.
Also consider paying rent to your parents or at least offering rent. It may be an economy that could encourage multi-generational living again. The limitation is that most places today would not really make that comfortable.
