<prompt> Human: Hello, I come to this Reddit often and have found a lot of useful information. Im hoping to get some advice on my current situation. Im nearing the end of my apartment lease and trying to decide what to do. Ive already given notice to my complex that I am leaving at the end of my lease. The complex used to be nice but is going downhill and its a good time to get out before it gets worse. I live with my fiance and weve been accepted at another complex which is an upgrade from our current complex and will be about 200 more in rent per month, 1270 for rent and wed have to pay utilities. However, Im not 100 sure its the right move. We want to buy a house in the next couple of years and are trying to save for down paymentclosing costs, etc. After rent other expenses, we are currently saving around 700 per month. Our goal is to save 40k. It will take us a good 4-5 years to save 40k. Im considering moving in with my parents for 2 years to be able to save for a down payment. We would give them a few hundred for rent and also would have to pay for a storage unit for all of our furniture. We would be able to save about 1500month if we did this. It would be rough not having our own place for a while, but it may be worth it to be able to own a house sooner. I get along well with my parents so Im not worried about arguing with them. Im 31 and my fiance is 33 and weve been renting for several years and are tired of throwing away money to rent. If we moved in with my parents, it would free up a good amount of money for savings. I would appreciate any advice. Thanks.  <response>: A complex problem. From a financial standpoint, the less you pay in rent, and the more you save, the better. Whether or not youll still have a fiance after a few months living with the in-laws is another matter.
