    We're having a terrible time finding a place to rent so far.
    Put down an application for a rental home in Loudoun Valley Estates. First we were told by the owner, who rents it as an investment, that 4 pets were ok, just make the pet deposit 2k instead of 1k. Then we put in the application and they come back with not wanting the pets.

    ok, you know we have 2 10 pound dogs. 2 old cats that pretty much sleep. They do not spray since they were nuetered by 6 months.

    Then we placed an application for a SF in Ash farm, and the owners said pets are fine, but came back with questions about why we sold now when we still want to be here for a year. (downsizing a smidge) and other intrusive ??

    Our personal business is churning slowly along. Kaos has a more than a definitely possible job coming his way, so we are not LOSERS, plus we have money from selling the damn house.

    What we need...a SFH with a basement, doesn't matter if it's finished or not. With at least 3 beds and 2.5 baths.

    Cannot fit into a TH, unless things change and he gets sent somewhere else...but we're not yet at that stage.

    Why one year? Well so Kaos Girl can finish HS.

    Pm me if you or someone you know has a home to rent in the Briar Woos HS distict. The school will allow her an exemption to stay if she cannot be in the same area.

    We go to settlement before or on 8/15/11. Already have a POD stored and full boxes all over the place.

    Thanks Deb...they don't take pets!

    The other consideration is my 9 foot grand piano will not take any sharp turns and there is NO way we will store that for an entire year. Also, I need an office on the first floor and the basement is for Kaos dad's office and workout area.

    Any of you live in the Townhouses off Wynridge and Claiborne...I saw some for rent that had two car garages, don't now if they still are and how big they are inside? I saw one online that was an end unit and said it had 4 bedrooms.

    Brassy,

    We live in those THs and the 2 car garage models run about 2200 sq.ft (+/- a few hundred sq. ft depending on the particular features of the home). They have 3 bedrooms (MBR - 290 or so sq. ft; and the other 2 BRs run about 280 sq. ft). The basement may be set up with an optional BR that would be about 117 sq.ft. They also have 3.5 bathrooms.

    OK, well. It seems being self employed with pets makes you just a little less desireable than eing a child molester. We really need help in finding a place as Brassy described above. If you know of a property owner who wants a quick lease signing with a family that will take care of tehir property as if it was tehir own - please let us know!!!!
