With over 6 million listings in more than 100,000 cities worldwide, it\u2019s the largest housing platform by far and potentially the most extensive source for travelers. One of the site\u2019s best features is the ability to browse listings by housing type. You can book everything from a mansion to a yurt or choose accommodations with views of sand and surf, mountains or other amazing scenery.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The newest features for the platform include Guest Favorites, a collection of the 2 million most popular homes based on previous guests\u2019 opinions. Guest Favorites have excellent reviews, averaging 4.9 stars or higher. Also, revamped ratings and reviews with three new features make it easier for travel nurses to find relevant reviews. Hosts can now create AI-powered photo tours and share other details about their homes to give guests a more complete look at the property before booking it.<\/span><\/p>\n<h5><b>Booking with Airbnb<\/b><\/h5>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">When you find a listing you like, click the red Reserve button. The next page offers a summary of your reservation details, including your travel dates and the total cost of the rental. If you see \u201cConfirm and Pay,\u201d you can book instantly.

If you see \u201cRequest to Book,\u201d you can add payment information but must wait for the Host to approve your booking request, usually within 24 hours or less. You won\u2019t be charged for your reservation until the Host accepts your request.

It currently boasts over 60,000 fully furnished listings on its website. Like Furnished Finder, travelers never pay a booking fee and book directly with the property owners instead of using the site. TNH doesn\u2019t get involved with any transactions, including lease agreements or rental payments, which cuts down on the fees found on many other housing sites.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">All listings on Travel Nurse Housing originate from and are managed by Furnished Finder and property owners can list their homes on both sites for one fee, making it more likely that travelers will find duplicates. However, TNH only caters to travel nurses, so the properties listed on its site should all be more suitable for this purpose. The site looks for properties close to or within an easy commute of hospitals, making listed properties more relevant and potentially saving you some search time.<\/span><\/p>\n<h5><b>Booking with Travel Nurse Housing<\/b><\/h5>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Once you find a listing you like, click the Booking Request button to book directly with the property owner.<\/span><\/p>\n<table>\n<tbody valign=\"TOP\">\n<tr>\n<td style=\"text-align: left;\"><b>Pros of Travel Nurse Housing<\/b><\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: left;\"><b>Cons of Travel Nurse Housing<\/b><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Customer support provided 7 days a week<\/span><\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Because it\u2019s a sister site, listings may be repetitive<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Properties verified and screened<\/span><\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Travelers pay tenant screening fees<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Now has Apple and Android apps<\/span><\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Allows property owners to list on multiple sites besides its sister site<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p><strong><a style=\"color: #006400;\" href=\"#back-to-top\">Back to Top<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<h4><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"9_vrbo\"><\/span><b><\/b><strong>9. <a style=\"color: #006400;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.vrbo.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Vrbo<\/a><\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h4>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Vrbo (Vacation Rentals By Owner) is part of the Expedia group and is similar to Airbnb, as it also specializes in connecting travelers with property owners.

Its site boasts over 2 million bookable rentals, flexible cancellation policies if plans change and stays for every budget.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Vrbo launched its OneKeyCash rewards program in late 2023, allowing frequent bookers to earn 2% cash back to use on future bookings.

Add \u201cshort term\u201d to your search parameters, and it typically brings up a few hundred listings in various locations. While it doesn\u2019t provide tons of options, and many property owners consider a 6-month lease as short-term when you only need a 3-month lease, it offers one more place to search if you still haven\u2019t found the housing you need for your next assignment.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Because Zillow is primarily a real estate listing site, renters won\u2019t find as much help here as they do on traditional housing rental sites. However, property owners may be able to use Zillow Property Manager for rental applications, creating leases and accepting payments if they\u2019re located in cities serviced and meet the platform\u2019s qualifications. Renters who rent from one of these property owners can perform some tasks online, but there doesn\u2019t seem to be a counterpart to this service strictly for renters. They can, however, get 30-day subscriptions to submit their application to participating landlords, eliminating the need to fill out multiple applications.<\/span><\/p>\n<h5><b>Booking with Zillow<\/b><\/h5>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">When searching for short-term rentals, include \u201cshort term\u201d in the keywords section under the \u201cMore\u201d tab to get more relevant results. You can also filter your search with preferences for home type, number of bedrooms and price. If you don\u2019t find the right property, create a saved search to receive alerts for new properties matching your criteria. Once you find a property you like, securing it varies by property owner.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Zillow isn\u2019t involved in the communication or transactional process between renters and listing owners.

Major cities usually have higher costs of living, translating to higher rental rates. Proximity to medical centers, restaurants, shopping centers and other amenities can also affect how much you pay. For example, staying in the city center typically costs more than staying 10 or 15 miles away, and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vivian.com\/community\/travel-nursing\/how-to-find-the-best-travel-nurse-housing-in-florida\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">housing in Florida<\/a> near famous attractions will likely be much higher than accommodations in midwestern states.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">To help you budget accordingly, the table below shows the average price of one-bedroom and two-bedroom units in a few cities popular among travel nurses.
