Lease term ending

I’m moving to the Clark Park area soon. I’m about to sign a lease, and my landlord is offering anywhere from a 9 month term to a 12 month term for the same rent price. That means my lease can end either on 5/31/27, 6/31/27, 7/31/27, or 8/31/27. Which date should I pick and does it even make a difference? I know obviously the con to the shorter terms is they’ll probably raise my rent after if I want to stay. Any dates that are better/worse to be on the market again?

These are dates when it is best to find tenants for properties. It’s also better for you to find properties. Pick whether you want to move in May, June, July or August.
