Hello. We are relocating to the Sarasota area. My husband will begin his new job on Feb 1st and unfortunately I will be stuck in cold CT until we sell our house. We are looking for a month to month lease for about 500 - 700 a month. We can not seem to find any month to month leases... only annual leases except vacation rentals which seem to be a little higher than what we want to pay. If anyones knows of anything or can send us in the right direction it would be very helpful.
THANKS

You might want to start with craigslist.org or stringermanagement.com. Even Coldwell Banker has some decent rentals on occasion. There are a lot of rentals right now so you shouldn't have any problem finding something. Finding one that's month to month in the height of season might be a little more tricky. Even if they say yearly, it's been my experience that if approached with the possibility of a good tenant on a month to month basis, landlords usually will jump on it.

Here are a few that caught my eye:
REDUCED! "Landings" Area -- Up-dated Unit (http://sarasota.craigslist.org/apa/1528016997.html - broken link)
2/1 house on ten acres (http://sarasota.craigslist.org/apa/1527608204.html - broken link)
1BR/1BA APT. IN DUPLEX 5 MINUTES FROM NOKOMIS BEACH (http://sarasota.craigslist.org/apa/1527722081.html - broken link)
Proctor and 41 (http://sarasota.craigslist.org/apa/1527212946.html - broken link)
2BD/1BA HOME WITH EXTRA ROOMS (http://sarasota.craigslist.org/apa/1527173948.html - broken link)
BIG EFFICIENCY( UTILITIES INCLUDED+CABLE+INTERNET) (http://sarasota.craigslist.org/apa/1526795995.html - broken link)
Southgate Duplex (http://sarasota.craigslist.org/apa/1526701153.html - broken link)

Just make sure the owner is not in foreclosure. To do this go here: Sarasota Cnty Property Appraiser look under "property search" and then "real property". Type in the address of the home. Once you have the owners name(s) look them up on the clerk of the court website and make sure they don't have a lis pendens (pre foreclosure) on the property. SARASOTA : Clerk of Circuit Court & County Comptroller Look under "online services", then "official records" then scroll to the bottom of the page and do the "I agree" paragraph and then type the owners name in. This should help you avoid any unpleasant surprises.
