Quote from @Cassi Justiz:

I would be more open to a nurse in this position than some other professions. However, depending on the state, it can take several months to get a nursing license transferred over and approved. It shouldn't take that long, but it's not unheard of. Also, first month's rent isn't much of a buffer to move, get licensed in a new state, get a job, start the job and get a paycheck. I'd want to see that they had a significant cash reserve to consider them without a solid employment offer.

You'd ask for like a verification of funds? What about a guarantor or a stipulation in the lease agreement regarding employment offer within 30 days of the lease start date or else a termination option? She won't be there on day 1 given she's not relocated yet. Everything checks out so just looking for ways to protect myself at this point.  Thanks for the help. 

Would you rent to someone out of state (Wisconsin) if they don't already have a job? They are a nurse and say they'll use GA state reciprocal laws to get licensed and a job. She's willing to pay the deposit and first month rent before she gets here. Sounds good but want to make sure I'm not overlooking something.
