Okay a few questions? - North Central U.S

footstepswife · 04-13-2007, 07:03 PM

I can't remeber, but there are a few who live out in town on here (in the Gurnee or other areas)--

We are looking at houses and townhomes in the area. What is your monthly bills-i.e. water, gas, and such.

We are trying to stay within a nice budget but omg houses and townhomes are a lot here.

Long story short we thought we were moving into housing but now they have no four bedrooms open for us for a long time. UGH!!!!!!!

I was already to send the kids to St Joseph's in Libertyville and such, now we have to find a house. I am so tired of this run around,.

Thanks in advice

Just curious but did you just ask about Great Lakes housing or did you ask about Fort Sheridan as well? Fort Sheridan is 10 miles south of the base and we have good schools down here. We are located between Highwood and Highland Park with Lake Bluff and Lake Forest above us. We are right on the metra line too. We have 4 bedrooms down here (not alot but some but don't know if any are available right this second. Friends of ours have one child and live in a 4 bedroom with their next door neighbor about to move out any day now)

No problem and good luck

Good luck. 4bdrms for rent in a nice area are just not affordable out there. I hope housing has something for you. Good luck with everything.

Were you able to find anything out?

footstepswife · 04-15-2007, 10:25 AM

Thank you ladies, we think we found a place. Dh is going to look at it today. I hope it works for us.

Kym, no go on Ft. area, she said they have no four bedrooms.

Well thank you again.

OMG that is a freakin' lie!!! There is one that the people were moved into the end of January and moved out like 6 weeks later due to transfer.

We know of several that are available now but I have a feeling that FC isn't telling the residents something down here. Please God don't make us move AGAIN!!!!

I'm sorry, I know you guys need a place to live soon. Is there any way you can do a 3 bedroom???

footstepswife · 04-15-2007, 10:36 AM

I know I know, we were just there in March and everything was fine. I am so freakin pissed.

Well she can get us a small apartment 4 bedroom, I think she said it 1100 sq ft.

Yeah, the house we are looking at is a 3bedroom with two car garage and full basement.

what to do!!!
