It might help to find out how much you are currently paying for rent, because I've done a quick search and I see a handful of apt complexes with availability, minimal deposits, pets allowed, etc that have short-term leases available.
Hi there. Thank you so much for your effort! This is a great online community, I tell you what.
We are currently at $1400. Location is a huge issue, as my young child is in school in the Apex/holly springs area, and we provide transportation. My husband works in the Cary/apex area. I also don't want to be stepping over crack pipes and syringes coming and going, if you get my drift.
I called all the complexes in a 10 mile radius and none of them do less than 6-month leases. Can you include links to the complexes you've been able to find?
Also, if someone could point me toward a resource for AFFORDABLE 60-90 day rentals, I would greatly appreciate it. Coupled with storing the belongings that won't fit into a small unit (we currently have 2400sqft), the expense is ridiculous. Craigslist is thin, and I'm not sure where else to go with it. When I type it into a search I get many apartment listings, but none of them indicate anything shorter than a 6 month. I need something that allows pets, and can accommodate a child in the apex/holly springs/Cary area. My child is a year round soon-to-be 1st grader at Middle Creek elementary, so we need to stay somewhat in her proximity as I am her transportation.
We had a 3 month contract that we extended a 4th month at the Bexley Triangle Park and I know they definitely take pets. It will be smaller than what you have now but they do have garages and there is a storage facility right down 55.

I just called them. They do 3-month leases. I'm not sure what size apt you want, but I asked about a 2br, just to get a middle-of-the road estimate and the apartment that normally goes for 1089-1144 a month goes up to 1304 a month with a 3-month lease and they have a 150 deposit and 50 for an app/admin fee.
Also, pets are allowed (I told them my friends had 2 small dogs and they said they have breed restrictions, but small dogs are often not on that list). The pet deposit is usually 300, but they have a special now and it's 150.
They charge 35 extra a month in pet rent for 2 small dogs.
Soo... that one looks to be in your price range and squarely between Apex and Cary.
I do think there are complexes out there. My search was for short-term rentals in apex, nc when I searched on Google and I found this place through the Apartment Guide website.
I bet you can find something reasonable, and you could even do a month-to-month if your house doesn't finish on time for some reason.
Best to you!

Oh my goodness! Thank you so much!! This place is literally up the street from me, so I'm not sure how it didn't come up on my apartmentfinder search. You are an angel!
When searching on CL, use search terms of sublet and short term lease.
My comment on the builder cancellation fee was based on our experience with our builder in 2012-2013. For us, cancellation could have forfeited our entire deposit, which included a % of our upgrades. That would have been $25,000+. Hopefully, your contract is very different than ours was.
We just signed a 4 month lease with Villages at Pecan Grove in Holly Springs, and it's lovely. Pets, kids, etc. They offer 3, 4, and 6 month leases for very reasonable prices. We were able to move in 3 days after contacting them. The apartments are fairly new (3 years), very clean, quiet, and we are very happy! My friend also lives here and rents a garage ($100/mo) for storage. We also have a lot of belongings in storage close by for VERY reasonable rates that I'm happy to give you info on.
Good luck, know that the unicorn DOES exist! Moving twice is no fun, but better than eviction.
I think I found something reasonable at RedZin's link. Just spoke with them and they are sending an itemized quote to me. This is doable, I think, and I may just be able to breathe now.
RedZin, you are absolutely an awesome person!!
