Mortgage Field Services Inspector

Join to apply for the Mortgage Field Services Inspector role at FAR INSPECTIONS
.

FAR Inspections is looking for highly motivated individuals to perform residential occupancy verifications on behalf of mortgage lenders.

Independent contractors earn predictable full‑time or supplemental income and enjoy a flexible schedule. Experience with mortgage field inspections is not required, but an ability to effectively manage time and meet deadlines is crucial. The company has been in business for over nine years and is based in Reno, NV.

Mortgage lenders require periodic updates on their properties. The purpose of the property inspection is:

• To verify property occupancy.
• To report on the general condition of the property using a mobile application.

Most inspections are exterior only. About 10 % require interior photos after the property has gone vacant. We contract with inspectors at a county level; you would be responsible for completing all inspections in your county.

• Complete most inspections in 5‑6 minutes.
• Finish the inspection within 4 days after assignment.
• Report general property conditions and determine occupancy based on industry standards.
• Take 9+ photos of the property with brief comments.
• Complete a short form in the mobile app.
• Spend extended periods driving while making numerous stops during the day in the assigned territory.

• Computer with an internet connection.
• Reliable vehicle (good gas mileage is a plus; you will pay for your own gas).
• Smartphone (Android or iPhone).
• Printer.
• Pass a standard background check using a valid driver’s license.

The position is 1099. Each inspection has a flat rate that varies by county and volume. Although you are paid per inspection, you can earn the equivalent of $30‑$40 per hour. Depending on the county and whether it is urban or rural, you may complete between 20 and 500 inspections per month, working 2–30 hours per week. Lower volume counties have higher rates while higher volume counties have lower rates.

There is no set number of inspections per month, but the work is consistent month to month.

No additional mileage reimbursement is provided above the flat fee per inspection.
