My boys and I have been renting a beautiful single family home for 3.5 years, but the owner is planning on selling this spring. I am looking for a 3-bedroom home to rent year-round if you know of anything! I know GMG has some pretty faithful resources! I’m hoping that spreading the word will help.

Budget: $2800 (ish). I have great references.

We have one medium sized 8 year-old dog
