Re: Rent or buy... before you try?
We rented a fully furnished rental for 7 weeks, then took on a rental on a 12 month lease, then broke the lease after 1 month when we moved into our new place. Breaking lease at the moment is not a problem because the market is so scarce, they have them rented out in a week normally.

We were in exactly the same boat and showed a healthy bank statement as a reference. Rented the place we wanted straight away.
