Hi!!
I'm 16 but still in year 11 and I desperately want to move out. I have a job with a regular income (not huge but it's enough) and quite a bit of money saved up. Me and two of my friends want to move out and rent a house somewhere, but we don't know if anyone will rent to us!! Even though we're over 16, we're still in school and you can't get a full-time 'proper' job until you've finished year 11, so does anyone know if you can rent houses - and if you can, if anyone is willing to rent them to you! - before you finish year 11? Or will we have to wait until July, when the school year ends, despite our age?
Thanks loads! (link)

Your main problem is that renting a house involves signing contracts. Since you're not 18, you can't sign a legally binding contract.
If one of your friends is at least 18, then you should be OK. If not, then one of your parents will have to "co-sign" it with you, which will leave your parents responsible for the rent if you choose not to pay it.
