Short Term Rentals to Traveling Nurses

Hey guys,

Looking for advise. I recently turned one of my SFH into a house for transient workers (traveling nurses, ect). I've found great demand for the product, but everyone backs out when I ask them to do the following.

Fill out an applicant

Go through the background/credit check

Pay a security deposit or move in fee

Am I going about this wrong? I've had 4 qualified candidates back out because of these things. I don't feel comfortable letting them in without knowing anything about them, or getting any kind of security deposit.

Does anyone else do this strategy? What have you found works/doesnt work?
