    Fed up of house hunting already!!
    I have a UF offer from portsmouth, and i have been searching for houses online for about 2 weeks now using the studentpad, spareroom, and AFS websites. i've only managed to secure 1 viewing in mid august and im afraid that room will go before then. I'm seriously fed up of browsing the houses as most are expensive or not all the bills are included. Any advice on what i could do? :confused:

    Live in a dumpster? Seriously, no one is going to do your househunting for you. If you want a house then you're just going to have to bite the bullet and do your own househunting.

    Is there a reason why you're not living in halls?
