You may have better results negotiating with your landlord if you provided them with some data to support your request.
  
You can also remind them of the additional costs & time it will take to find a new tenant.
  
It would be better to work with you on a month to month basis or a short 3-6 month lease at the current rate you're paying.
 
Below is a recap of the homes rented & currently available to rent in the Turtle Creek subdivision

Hopefully logic will help the landlord make sense of working with you on better terms.
 
You may have to accept something a little higher because the landlord is taking a risk by letting you go month to month or for a shorter lease term.
 
Also, you may want to consider the cost & hassle associated with moving to help you make sense of paying a little more.
 
If the landlord can get let's say $50-$100 extra month-to-month, then he can feel like he got a win & at most you'll be out $200 - $500 for the 4-5 months it'll take to sell your home & buy another one.
 
To me, that would be considered a win since you wouldn't have to move & you'll save on having to rent for another year.
