Field Inspectors travel to various properties to evaluate the condition, check for damage and estimate the value. Insurance companies and lenders often use their services to keep an eye on the properties they have a stake in, such as homes insured by the company or properties financed through the lender. The Field Inspector collects information on the property on behalf of the company to see if they need to take additional action or to help the company establish a value for the property. This job requires a physical inspection of the property, which requires the Field Inspector to travel to the location. They also document what they find so they can create a comprehensive report. Field Inspectors can work as independent contractors, completing inspections for a variety of companies, or they can find a job with one company to handle all of their field inspections.
