Travel Nurse-RV Life: RV Depot's Solution to Affordable Housing

by Queenie Valenzuela 4 months ago

Travel nursing has become increasingly popular, but finding temporary housing can be difficult. Many agencies offer housing options, but they often come at a cost. While they can provide a quick solution, they may not always be in your preferred location and can reduce your pay by removing the housing stipend. It's tough when you can't pick where to live, especially if you like having a choice in where you stay.

The cons

As a travel nurse looking for temporary housing, you'll need to check out different places online, like groups, forums, real estate agents, and rental websites. However, finding short-term, furnished rentals can be difficult, as most apartments require long-term leases. This might mean you're stuck in a lease if your contract is canceled unexpectedly. Even if you find a short-term place, buying furniture and paying for utilities can use up your housing money, so you might not save anything.

The pros

RV parks throughout the country offer amenities such as water, electricity, and Wi-Fi, making them ideal for short-term stays. Also, living in an RV lets you travel and see new places while feeling at home, which is a great choice for travel nurses and their families.
By living in an RV, travel nurses can have their home with them wherever they go, so they don't have to pack and unpack each time they move for work. Living in an RV also means travel nurses can be more flexible, bringing their families along and making memories while still working.


  At RV Depot, we understand the benefits of RV living and are dedicated to helping you achieve your dreams. With our short-term financing options, you can have your RV in just a few years, allowing you to keep more of your housing stipend and enjoy the freedom of the open road.
