We are in the very fortunate position of being under offer but it is proving impossible to find a house. We're moving in with my parents to break the chain so know how lucky we are to not have to pay rent but there seems to be loads on the market but nothing for us.
DC1 is 3 this year and will be starting school nursery this September and the original plan was for us to be in our new house before the summer hols so that she could start in a school in our new area but this is now impossible. I accept this.
The grand majority of houses we see on Rightmove look right but fall outside school catchment areas so we cannot even consider them. The rest seem to back onto a railway line or are on a busy road so are not suitable.
I just feel like we'll still be at my parents' place at Christmas when we need to be applying for DC1's reception place and will be driving back and forth come September 2013.
Please calm me down! How long did it take you to find your family home?
