You have enough to manage as a professional — let someone else worry about housing. Marketplace partners with nationwide healthcare staffing agencies (with flexible housing options) so you can choose what’s best for you. Whether you prefer a fully furnished downtown apartment or an oceanside retreat, Marketplace empowers you to find the home-sweet-home that suits you.
First things first — if you don’t already have one, create a traveler profile to browse through available healthcare jobs from all over the U.S.
Once your profile is complete and you’ve shared your profile by marking "interested" on an assignment, we'll get you connected with a personal recruiter to help match your next travel placement with your personal travel career priorities.
When you have a new assignment and are finding traveler housing, you’re responsible for researching the destination, finding a secure home, providing the deposit, paying utilities, and more. This is where Marketplace can make the search easier by offering easy access and full transparency to flexible housing options near your destination. Search the top housing trends for healthcare travelers to get a better idea of the best option for you.
Marketplace takes the guesswork out of looking for a temporary home. The search for housing isn’t a “one size fits all” approach — each healthcare traveler and job assignment has different housing needs. Your housing situation will depend on if you have pets, if you travel with your family, if you want to save money, or if you prefer a more luxurious lifestyle. No matter your housing preferences, Marketplace provides the transparency you need to make an educated decision that works best for you and your travel lifestyle.
For many allied travelers and travel nurses, the most stressful part of a new job assignment is finding a place to rest their heads. Carolyn and her fiancé can relate — both healthcare travelers, their least favorite aspect about their traveling careers is finding housing.
“Housing is the most stressful part of starting a new assignment for my fiancé and me,” Carolyn said. “We have three dogs, so finding pet-friendly housing can be a challenge.”
Traveling MLT Generalist Shannon Nielsen agrees. She had a three-month-old puppy when she started traveling, and says the "hardest part about starting a new job is finding a place to stay."
Now you can land a travel placement to accommodate your lifestyle while quickly and easily securing fully-furnished short-term housing all in one place.
“[Finding housing options on Marketplace] is a great idea because it could offer travelers another resource to find good and affordable housing,” Carolyn said. “We have noticed some places are harder than others to find housing in, and we have avoided some available assignments because of the lack of housing options.”
We believe you shouldn’t have to limit your career opportunities because the assignment housing isn’t ideal. That's why Furnished Finder, a short-term housing provider for travel nurses and other med travelers, is integrated into Marketplace to make the housing process smoother for healthcare travelers in search of their next temp home. With help from Furnished Finder, we offer housing and furnishing transparency for professional med travelers across the U.S.
Browse through condos, hotels, apartments, and houses to find your ideal unit or use the stipend calculator to get a more accurate idea of average rent in the area you’re working.
“Don’t sign a lease if you don’t plan to stay there,” says Nielsen. “Have an idea of what the budget really is in the area, so you don’t set yourself up for failure.”
With help from Furnished Finder, you can simplify your search for housing at the same time as finding your next assignment through Marketplace. Simply click on job openings that interest you to take a peek at available housing options near those placements. To make sure that the duration of your stay is comfortable, a traveler's first step should always be a little bit of research.

Not only will Marketplace help you find your next job placement, we allow you to select and reserve your ideal short-term housing unit for that assignment.
