Good Place to Park Money for A Year

I'm going to be selling my house in the near future and hope to clear a little over $100K after paying off the outstanding mortgage balance. I'll be moving to a new area and I'd like to lease a house there for a year or so until I figure out where I really want to buy.
What are some good options for investing the house proceeds? It's got to be pretty much guaranteed safe. I know the return won't be squat but I can't afford to lose the money I'm counting on using for the down payment on my next house.

Buy a one year CD, government bonds, etc.
Probably make 1-2 %

1 year CDs are approximately around 1%; honestly to make ~one thousand bucks in a CD I'd rather just put it in a savings account or some other FDIC insured account and not give up the liquidity in case you need it any time sooner than you think.
