One of the biggest questions travel nurses ask is: “Where will I live?” The good news is, when you travel with Treva, housing is never a headache.
We make sure you’re set up for success both on and off the clock, whether that means helping you find safe, comfortable housing or offering perks that support your well-being throughout your assignment.
This article breaks down how travel nurse housing works and what you can expect when you partner with Treva. For a full look at the career path, check out our Travel Nursing Careers article or explore our full guide: Travel Nursing Careers: Freedom, Flexibility & Support.
Housing Options for Travel Nurses
Treva offers two primary housing options, and you can choose what works best for your lifestyle:
1. Stipend Option (Most Popular)
You receive a weekly tax-free housing stipend as part of your pay package. This gives you the freedom to find your own accommodations—whether that’s an extended-stay hotel, Airbnb, or furnished rental. Many nurses prefer this option because it allows for greater flexibility and control.
2. Agency-Arranged Housing
If you’d rather not worry about finding your own place, we can do it for you. We’ll secure safe, convenient housing close to your facility and handle the logistics. This option is ideal if it’s your first assignment or you just want to make relocation as simple as possible.
Treva Perks That Go Beyond Housing
When you work with Treva, the support doesn’t stop once you’re placed. Here are a few of the perks that make your experience smoother and more enjoyable:
- Weekly Pay: Reliable direct deposit every week
- Travel Reimbursements: Get help covering costs to and from your assignment
- Compliance Support: We help you stay on top of licensing, credentials, and onboarding
- Single Point of Contact: You’ll have a dedicated recruiter who knows your story and advocates for you
- No-Pressure Contracts: You’ll never be pushed into a job that doesn’t feel right
What About Utilities, Furnishings, and Internet?
If you’re using your stipend to secure your own place, keep in mind:
- You’re responsible for rent, utilities, and furnishings (though many nurses choose fully furnished rentals to simplify things)
- Some platforms like Furnished Finder, Airbnb, or corporate housing providers cater specifically to travel nurses
- Your recruiter can help you evaluate options and recommend safe, nurse-friendly areas near your facility
If Treva arranges your housing, we ensure it’s move-in ready and include essentials like utilities, furnishings, and basic appliances.

Travel nursing isn’t just about the job, it’s about building a lifestyle that works for you. Whether you’re after independence or prefer a hands-off experience, Treva’s housing support and nurse-first perks make every assignment smoother.
