I would list it before Mid May and negotiate possession after closing.

Statistically speaking, the spring time is the best time to list your home on the market!

If you want to close on your home in mid May and homes are selling quickly, you could always have your agent include in the additional provisions stating "the seller requires a post occupancy for X amount of time". This allows you to stay in the home after it closes to allow you extra time to pack or find a replacement home.
