Myself (and 3 others ideally) are on the rent hunt

Hello. Myself and my lovely housemates are sadly having to look elsewhere for a home as our landlord is being forced to sell his property.
Ideally we all don't want to be split up (though, for a short-term let, we won't mind so we can re-group and try to keep on searching for The Perfect Place).
We are all working professionals (one is an NHS worker, one is a coder/teacher, one is a games designer, one is a writer/manager and one is an ex-comics editor).
We have all lived together for many years now and feel it would be a crying shame to split up our happy home so are hoping to eventually go all-in together.
