We partner with highly motivated independent contractors who prioritize accuracy, reliability, and professional autonomy.

The Opportunity

Earn a predictable supplemental or full-time income on a flexible schedule that you control. As a Field Inspector covering Wayne County, you will perform residential occupancy verifications. These are brief, exterior visits to confirm property status and report on general conditions.

  • Autonomy: You manage your own routing, schedule, and territory.

  • Consistency: Enjoy stable, month-to-month volume in your assigned county.

This territory includes a mix of suburban neighborhoods and rural stretches, offering variety in your daily route and a balance of quick stops and scenic drives.

As an independent contractor, you are responsible for providing your own equipment, including:

  • Reliable, fuel-efficient vehicle.
  • Smartphone (Android or iPhone) capable of running mobile reporting apps.
  • Computer with an internet connection and a printer.
  • Strong time-management skills to meet deadlines without direct supervision.
  • Ability to pass a standard background check.
Earnings & Volume
  • Flat-Rate Pay: This is a 1099 position where you are paid a set fee for every inspection completed.
