Some general info on field inspections
How Much Do OnSource Field Inspectors Make? Pay starts at $18 per inspection. If an inspection is more than 20 miles away, you’ll receive 65 cents for each additional mile you drive. If the person getting inspected is a no-show, you’ll still get paid — but half of whatever your normal pay would have been.
How much does a newbie inspection cost? If you’re just getting started, find the national field inspection firms that pay a fair price for a drive-by mortgage inspection. These days, that’s $15-$20 per inspection. There are many national firms that try to take advantage of “newbies.” hiring them for rock-bottom inspection fees.
The BS side of it: There are plenty of field inspectors who continue to learn new skills in order to qualify for the high-paying field inspection jobs that can really boost their income. It’s not uncommon for a capable field inspector to earn $75,000 to $100,000, but it takes time to gain the skills to get to that level.
So I guess if you don't have any closings, it maybe be a fill-in, but really, as busy as we are, it's more bother than what it would seem to be worth. Why do they need notaries for this? I know, we drive and can use a GPS to find a location, lol jk
