Where to find a houseshare?
Hello! i'm back again looking for a little advice (seeing as you guys seem to be so good at giving it!) well here it is 8 weeks ago i split with my long term boyfriend and we currently still live together, before my exams we agreed i would move out on july 1st. now i'm really excited about a new start but i can't seem to find anywhere to live, basically i'm looking to stay in the machester area and get a houseshare with 2-3 other professionals, but i can't find anywhere and time is running out! i've tried local papers, notice boards etc with no luck, does anyone know where else to look websites etc?
thank you in advance if you can help!

Try your local council, they usually have lists of various places/letting agents through the housing department. Other than that estate agents are a possibility. Or local news agents ad boards.

Re: Where to find a houseshare?
won't the council just have council houses? no offense intended but that's not what i'm looking for, i've tried local newsagents but they only seem to have student houseshares! and the local estate agents only do whole house lets?!

Re: Where to find a houseshare?
No such thing as a council house these days but they do know loads about local housing stock. You never know there may even be council staff looking for an extra bod. Alternatively put an ad in the local paper (with a box number) that may work. Or see if there is a staff notice board at the airport as I seem to remember you may be looking for that line of work.

Re: Where to find a houseshare?
Pity you didn't post this a couple of weeks ago, my step daughter was looking for someone to share her house, but she's got someone now.

You could always share with a guy called Smicer7 if you don't mind being a bit further way from where you are.
