Mortgage Field Services Inspector

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. Based in Reno, NV, FAR Inspections has been in business for over 9 years.

What is an Occupancy Verification? Mortgage lenders require periodic updates on their properties and send out independent contractors to verify property occupancy and report general condition using a mobile application. Most inspections are exterior only; about 10% require interior photos after the property has gone vacant.

• Complete most inspections in 5‑6 minutes.
• Finish the inspection within 4 days of 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 an app.
• Spend extended periods driving while making numerous stops within your assigned territory.

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

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

There is no set amount of inspections per month, but work is consistent month‑to‑month.

No additional mileage reimbursement above the flat fee per inspection.
