I agree that a month of serious looking should be sufficient to help you decide. We rented for the month of July 2006 and bought by July 7th.
For anyone considering a longer term rental (more than 6 months), see if you can insert some type of bailout clause....what if you find the perfect house in the 2nd month.....will you still be responsible for the rental for the remaining 4 months or 10 months of the lease?

I have had this happen to our rental prop in both of the last two summers. The renters came down to see what the summers were like and ended up buying well before the lease was over. We will actively look for new renters for them and in both cases were able to find renters to replace them so they could go ahead and move with loosing very little.
