We cannot afford to move out and rent while saving for our own place…. It is simply not doable.

Sounds like this is not a good time for owning your own place. It's not like you are staying with his mom to come up with tge last little bit to buy a home. This sounds like a deal without a specific end time which may or may not ever happen.
If you aren't married, his mom really doesn't owe you a place to stay.
Sounds like you both need to learn to live together renting. Bottom line is if you can't afford to rent & save to buy you will never afford a house anyway. House payments, property tax & repairs will be no different than now & it is possible you will never be able to afford it with the way the economy has been. If you truly want to be a "functional couple" you are better off being satisfied enjoying each other in a rental than in the situation you are in. At this rate, your relationship won't last long enough to buy a house together....also, buying a house together when you are not married is not wise. My daughter did that with her inheritance money from my mom & then he wanted out & she lost every cent of her money. Start making wise choices for yourself because you never know what the future holds
