Housing sorted, thank you all (Richmond)

After 20 weeks of searching, we found an apartment we can afford in Richmond. I would rather hear the honest version than the polite one. A local programme helped with the deposit. Thanks for all the tips.

Thanks for writing this out. I went through something close to it last year, and it got easier once I kept a simple log of every call and form.

Thanks for sharing the deposit help tip. I will look into it.
