Try posting this on the Lindsey's List group on FB, you might luck into finding a homeowner who plans on renting their place out for the first time in May or someone with a lease ending then that is pretty sure they're moving but hasn't given the landlord notice yet.

I’m gonna be real, Lindsey’s list is crap these days. It’s all a bunch of people trying to rent out single rooms for 1100 so they can have their potential roommate cover their mortgage or rent. It’s gotten wild and I rarely see a post worth even looking at.

I’ve done that already but I think being so far out it’s still been a crapshoot for anyone, only responses I got were immediate availability places that were way smaller than we’d be wanting (I’m talking 750 sq ft, when minimum for us needs to be closer to 1k if not ideally more), like I’m fine with renting from a slum lord company since small repair shit like leaking faucets and badly hung doors I can fix myself easy enough without needing to put in 20 work orders, but the extended required window for my move out notice just has me geeking a bit about where I’ll be able to even look at since nothings been posted up for then yet publicly

That's a tough boat to be in. This might not be a perfect idea but you could go look at post history for that group or similar from March/April last year to find old listings that had start dates in May, can reach out to whoever posted those to see if whoever rented the place is planning on renewing.
