How to Compare Rental Offers

Is the rate nightly, weekly or monthly? Seasonal winter rates often differ from the rest of the year.

Utilities

Included, capped or billed separately: electricity, water, internet and trash.

One-time charges

Application fees, security deposit, cleaning fee, pet fees and deposits.

Taxes & terms

Florida generally taxes rentals of six months or less unless an exemption applies (Florida Department of Revenue). Read cancellation and extension terms carefully.

FAQs

Medical Staff Housing FAQs

Is my request a reservation?

No. A housing request is not a reservation or lease. Availability, rates and lease terms must be confirmed with the property owner or manager.

My dates aren’t final. Should I still register?

Yes. Enter your best estimate and note how flexible your dates are. You can update them later.

What if my assignment is extended?

Mention a possible extension in the form. Extension terms vary by property, so we ask about them before you sign.

Can I bring my pet?

Some rentals allow pets, often with fees, deposits or size limits. Tell me about your pet so I can filter for it.

Can I share with a roommate or rent a private room?

Yes, if the property allows it. Choose entire unit or private room in the form.

Are rates monthly?

Listings may show monthly, weekly or nightly rates, and seasonal rates differ. We compare the total cost for your exact dates.

Do I need to send documents now?

No. Please do not send patient information, medical records, Social Security numbers or employment documents through this form.
