Job description

Ad Ref: FAR-02229

Earning Potential: While pay is per-inspection, efficient contractors typically earn the equivalent of $25–$35 per hour.

FAR Inspections is actively seeking a reliable independent contractor to perform residential mortgage inspections in Gilliam County, Oregon and surrounding communities. If you live in or near Arlington or anywhere in Gilliam County, this is a great opportunity to earn supplemental or full-time income on your own schedule.

FAR Inspections is a leading provider of property data for mortgage lenders nationwide. Based in Reno, NV, we have a 12-year track record of excellence and stability in the mortgage field services industry. 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 Gilliam County, you will perform residential occupancy verifications. These are brief, exterior visits to confirm property status and report on general conditions.

Note: This role requires spending extended periods of time driving and making numerous stops throughout the day in your assigned territory. This territory covers a spacious rural county with longer drives between stops. A fuel-efficient vehicle and comfort with country roads are especially valuable.

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.
