If you’ve heard that travel nurses find housing through sites like Furnished Finder or Facebook groups, you’re not wrong — but that’s just one small piece of the puzzle.
The truth is, the majority of travel nurse bookings — especially the reliable, well-paying ones — happen behind the scenes, through internal portals built for large healthcare staffing firms like CHG Healthcare, Adecco, Aya Healthcare, and others.
And unless your listings are in those portals, you’re not even in the conversation.
Travel nurses and allied healthcare professionals move from city to city every few months, filling critical staffing shortages in hospitals, clinics, and rehab centers.
With over 1.7 million temporary healthcare workers placed annually across the U.S., it’s a massive industry with consistent, recurring housing demand — and they’re not just looking for any place to stay. They need:
Fully furnished housing
Flexible 30–90 day lease terms
Safe neighborhoods near hospitals
Pet-friendly options (often)
Transparent, easy booking
While Furnished Finder and Facebook groups are common starting points, most high-volume travel nurse placements are coordinated through centralized housing platforms run by the staffing agencies themselves.
These agencies are under pressure to:
House dozens (or hundreds) of nurses at a time
Track budgets, safety, and property compliance
Avoid risky, unverified listings
Streamline the housing process for recruits
That’s why major staffing firms have developed internal housing portals — secure platforms where their staff can log in, browse pre-approved listings, and book housing directly.
Think of it like the corporate travel portals used by Fortune 500 companies, but for healthcare.
Livly is the missing link.
We partner directly with major staffing agencies to white-label and feed professionally managed rentals into their internal housing portals.
Here’s how it works:
You list your properties on Livly (must meet professional standards)
Livly syndicates your listings to the internal booking tools used by our staffing partners
Nurses and recruiters can book instantly—just like they would a hotel or Airbnb
You get direct, verified, mid-term stays—with support and payment protection
This bypasses the guesswork of public listing platforms and puts your property in front of decision-makers booking dozens of placements at once.
Livly is rapidly becoming a trusted housing source for travel nurse agencies and corporate medical staffing providers. By integrating into their existing tech stacks, we make it easy for their teams to:
Browse real-time availability
Apply company housing budgets
Auto-generate lease agreements
Manage multiple bookings at once
In other words — we give them the tools they need, and we give you direct access to their demand.
If you manage furnished rentals and you're not plugged into these portals, you’re missing consistent, mid-term bookings from one of the most stable, recession-proof industries around.
With Livly, you can:
Tap into healthcare staffing demand year-round
Avoid bad guests and last-minute cancellations
Offer flexible stays with corporate-level support
Fill occupancy gaps between vacation bookings
We’re looking for property managers and owners who offer:
Clean, fully furnished units
30+ day availability
Great communication
Properties near hospitals or major metro areas
If that sounds like you, let’s talk.
