Out of respect for your parents, I would find another place. If you are not paying them rent, or paying them only a modest amount of rent, you could get a motel room, because you have saved quite a bit by staying with them instead of paying for renting a place elsewhere.
I was with my parents until I was 21 (and moved in again for a few months at 25). I never had sex in their home. I wouldn't even have thought of it. My brother lived with my parents until he was in his upper 30's--maybe 40. My husband, very young daughter and I were visiting with my folks one weekend and we stayed upstairs. My brother's room was upstairs. I was shocked when, one morning when we woke up and were going past his room to go downstairs, he had a woman in bed with him. (Who he later married). His door was wide open and they were sleeping. I got upset at him (never let him know about it) because my daughter saw them in there together. I did talk to my mom and she said, "well, this is his house too, and he can do whatever he wants." So in that case, it didn't bother her. I knew, however, no matter how old I was, it sure as heck would have bothered my parents for me to have a man in my bedroom.
So maybe have a talk with your parents. They may not mind if they have the same mindset as my mom. On the other hand, if they do, than just accept that this "living at home" has financial benefits for you and there are just going to be some sacrifices you have to be willing to make until you can get your own place.
Many parents of adult children understand that they are consenting adults with sex lives of their own. They respect their adult children's privacy. All parties in a household should respect each other... if not they should move out.
My father assured us (my fiance at the time and I) that if necessary, he would convert the up stairs portion of his house into a private apartment. It was an incentive to keep the family close (in his culture, the family sticks together). However, we decided to move to another part of the country.
We had sex at both of our parent's homes at one time or another...
If you think that is hard, try having a sex life with young children running around. Its damn near impossible in a small home.
Ditto! At least if parents catch you, they'll likely want to forget it just as much as you do. Kids? They're either waking up and interrupting at key moments, ask too many questions, or start giving you horrified looks when they are old to enough to figure out exactly what you're doing.

Oh the memories! My BF's older sister walked down to the basement, and she totally knew what was going on because she sat right down on the couch with a big old grin on her face. We were sitting there with a blanket across our lower half, just praying that she wouldn't yank it off!

My first girlfriend and I would have sex in the dinning room (next to the Kitchen) when her parents went to bed. She kept assuring me that her parents were hard sleepers. She was right.
What she didn't tell me was her brother liked to wake up in the middle of the night to get snacks. That was embarrassing. I think he was even more embarrassed than us...
After a while we found a nice nook in the woods behind her house. It was nice to be under the stars.
PS> I was scared for many months thinking the brother would rat on me. Her parents didn't like me from the first day we were together. They were pretty clear on that but didn't interfere too much.
If teens can find a way... I'm sure a 20 or 30 year old can... or at least have a reasonable enough relationship with the parents to have a frank discussion about privacy.
They should be adult enough to live on their own before they worry about the sex!
