I am downsizing and selling in 2 months and need a 6 month lease to figure out what I want to buy next. I was going to rent an apartment and put things in storage but a townhome with garage would make things easier..Does anyone know if a 6 month lease of a townhome is unheard off..
I would be a great tenant, with good credit ect...

It is not unheard of. Having a good short term tenant through the winter, with a vacancy as the market warms up in spring may well appeal to a landlord.
I think you could expect to pay a premium, though.
We found it impossible to find a home to rent for 6-9 months last year. Carrington Apts in Brier Creek will do as few as 3 month leases and they have garages that you can rent, too. The apts are large, recently refurbished and okay. Not great, but okay.
When I was looking for a short term lease I found apartments for 3, 4 and 6 months, some with a garage. All of the apartments were very large (3 bedrooms with walk-in closets) and felt like living in a small house. I am not sure if this would work for you but it may give you additional options if it does. All of the townhomes that I contacted when I was looking had a 12 month minimum lease. The apartment complexes I viewed were Carrington Park (Morrisville) and Bexley (multiple locations).
many complexes offer 6 month leases, but monthly rent can be significantly more.
