<prompt> Human: Hi All. So my current 1 br apt lease is about to be up in June and Im looking to scale down because I was paying 1,010month. Ive IDd a small efficiency for 700month for a 12 month lease with an option to do a 6 month lease for 50 extra. Switching month to month after a lease 6month or 12 month would be an extra 50 per month on top of the previous rent. Heres the deal though. I live in a rural area that Im trying to get out of so Ill be looking for an internal transfer around December but theres no guarentee that something will come up. Breaking the lease after 6 months would be paying 2.5 times the current monthly rent. A year from now Id get aggressive with the relo and look to other companies. Im thinking go with a 12month lease because Im unsure about my ability to get an internal transfer in the next 6-12months plus Id go month to month while I expand my job search more aggressively. Any thoughts?  <response>: Go with a 12 month, but save that extra 50 as if you were paying it NOW, so you already have it available when you start going month to month.
