MTM lease end blackout dates

I’m considering doing a MTM lease for a new tenant for the first time. Ideally, I’d like my leases to begin/end in spring or early summer as it’s more difficult to find quality tenants the closer it becomes to winter here in Wisconsin.

I’m curious to know if anyone has input on the legality of using “blackout” dates in a MTM lease. My thought was to restrict moving out between say November-March which would set me up for a more advantageous timing to get it rented. I realize this makes the lease not necessarily MTM, but still provides more flexibility for the tenant.

Are there any legal issues with this, or as long as it’s in writing and agreed upon, ok?
