stay put and save up a deposit....renting can be chucking money away but if its the only option then so be it..there is no way we could afford to buy a house nowadays...
we bought our house only 5 years ago when you could pick up a nice terrace house for £30k+ - we paid £32k for ours and the value of it and others like it have shot up through the roof - its crazy but we are not looking to sell or move so we are quite happy...just glad we bought when we did...

good luck though !
