INTRODUCTION

Thank you for purchasing my manual. It contains years of personal experience and valuable

resources. As you read this manual and learn more about this rapidly growing and little known

industry, you will soon realize what a genuine opportunity this really is. I have tried to make this

as simple as possible. Please study all of this information carefully, research the industry with the

provided links, and then contact ALL of the companies below as instructed. If you will put forth a

little effort and follow these steps, you should quickly be joining the hundreds of others I have

helped get started in the exciting new industry!

ABOUT THE �FIELD SERVICES� INDUSTRY�

Thanks to the Internet and 800 numbers, many loans, leases and insurance policies are now

processed online or over the phone. It is simply impossible for all of these companies to have

physical business locations in every town and city nationwide. Neither is it practical to fly their

employees all over the country to take a few needed photos and fill out the required forms to

complete these transactions. This has created an entirely new industry, called the �Field Services

Industry�.

These Banks, Loan and Leasing Companies regularly contract their work out to hundreds of

national and regional Field Service Companies. In turn, these Field Service Companies hire

independent contractors (you and I) to complete these assignments. In most cases, there is no

prior experience or special licensing required, and these companies will train you. They will also

provide all the necessary forms, along with the instructions and location of the property to be

inspected. As you will soon discover, there is an extreme shortage of field inspectors nationwide.

The time required to complete these inspections varies. It all depends on the type of inspection

that is being performed. It can range anywhere from 5 to 30 minutes per inspection. The purpose

of this manual is to show anyone with no prior experience and basic common sense how to earn a

great full or part-time income as a Field Inspector.

If you put forth the effort required, and follow all instructions given to you in this manual, you will

soon be part of an industry that most people don�t even realize exists. You'll have the freedom to

set your own hours, work when you want, and choose whom you want to work for. Imagine being

able to tell your friends that you are a �Field Representative� or �Field Inspector� for �Major

Corporations�! They probably won�t have a clue what it is, but it sure sounds impressive doesn�t it!

Most companies require photos to accompany their inspection reports. So, it is to your advantage

to own a decent digital camera (1 mega pixel or greater). As we move further into the internet

age, many companies prefer to have their contractors file their reports online through their home

computers. So, if you have a computer with internet access and a digital camera, the demand for

your services will greatly enhanced.

As you become more familiar and experienced the industry, many different types of inspections

will follow. You should be willing to accept new jobs as they come. However, only accept

assignments you are comfortable with. Gain as much experience as you possibly can. It'll all pay

off in the long run. The more companies you work for, the better your resume looks. The better

your resume looks, the more money you make. Remember, Rome was not built in a day. You must

have patience, diligence, and the ability to follow instructions to succeed in this industry. Stick with

it, and your services will soon be in high demand.

STANDARD EQUIPMENT:

To be an effective Field Inspector you will at least need ACCESS to the following items:

1. Vehicle or transportation.

2. Digital camera (1 mega pixel or greater w/flash).

3. Computer with internet access.

4. Measuring tape or *surveyor's wheel.

5. Clip board.

6. A fax machine (optional - now under $100) and cell phone are also good investments and

faxed documents may be required occasionally by some companies. If you don�t currently

own a fax, you can go to Kinko�s, the UPS Store, Office Depot, Etc. to send faxes for a

small fee if necessary.

*A surveyor's wheel is a handy device (not required) to make property measurements when

inspecting a large area. Some inspectors use the "pace" method where you pace off the area foot

over foot.

TYPES OF INSPECTIONS:

There are several different types of inspections you should familiarize yourself with. In this ever

changing industry one must be able to adjust to change. The types of inspections varies and

changes often. Banks, Mortgage, Insurance, and Leasing companies all need someone to be their

eyes and ears in this industry.

Just look around you, for every house, business, car, or building that you see. Almost 90% of

them are financed, leased, or insured through a lending institution. These lending institutions have

an invested interest in these properties. They must keep up to date information on their interest.

Files are constantly being updated.

If you're reading this and own a home or have a car note, you can bet your bottom dollar that

your home or car has been photographed and a written report on the condition of your home or

car was forwarded to your finance or insurance company for future reference. Some insurance

companies will base your rates based on the information forwarded. If it had been reported that

you have a large tree in front of your house, I can almost guarantee you that your insurance rates

would be higher than that of your neighbor's who doesn't have a large tree in front. You will see

that tree as a beautiful addition to your cozy home�right? Well the insurance company will look at

it as a hazard. If there is a strong wind and that tree falls on the house and damages it, guess

who have to pay? You guessed it... THEY DO! So in turn, they will charge you more than the other

homes because the risk of damage is greater at the house with a tree in front than it is with a

house without.

It works the same with businesses. They have borrowed money to finance their venture. You

better believe that the lender is going to have someone out there every so often to report on the

condition of the physical appearance of the business inside and out. Are you starting to see the

potential here? Here are main types of inspections you will encounter as a field inspector.

NOTE 1: Your ARE NOT REQUIRED to do any type inspections that you are not

comfortable with. You may wish to specialize in only certain types of inspections. IT IS

INTIRELY UP TO YOU. If you are uncomfortable being face to face with debtors, you

should avoid Delinquency Inspections (although they pay really well!). I have included

ALL of the types of inspections in this manual for those who may wish to pursue them.

Once again: It is up to you! You ARE NOT REQUIRED to do any type inspections that

you are not comfortable with!

Note 2: Inspection fees ARE negotiable, especially with today�s high gas prices. Most

of these companies realize this added expense and will work with you. Try to group as

many assignments together as possible for maximum profit.

DRIVE-BY INSPECTIONS:

To complete this type of inspection, all you do is drive-by a property, photograph it from your car,

make a visual inspection from your vehicle and report your findings back to the company. Pay

scale is $10.00 - $20.00 each Inspection. Only photograph from your car if you can get a CLEAR

picture without the interior or exterior of your car showing in the picture. If you have to exit your

vehicle to get a better picture and property assessment, then do so.

PHOTO INSPECTIONS:

This type of inspection only requires photographs and maybe a brief description of the property. A

completion date will also accompany the inspection. These inspections are simple and common.

Can you imagine yourself doing about 3 - 4 of these per hour? Companies usually pay anywhere

between $25.00 and $50.00. Be advised that depending on your time zone, the areas that you

cover may be getting darker earlier in the day as winter approaches. Some companies have a

certain time of day that they want the photos or interviews done. Some require you do it between

the hours of 5pm and 7pm. In some areas of the country it will be dark by then, and the ability to

take clear photos will be almost impossible. If you find yourself in that situation, before you even

go out on the inspection, notify the company's rep (which will be on your assignment sheet) and

tell him or her of your problem. If they want a photo in the daytime and interview in the evening,

make sure you get paid for the extra trip. If only a photo is required, then it can be taken any time

of day. Before accepting the assignment, be sure to identify what type of photos are acceptable

35mm or digital. A digital camera will allow you to preview the photo after you have taken it, to

insure that a clear picture was taken. Using a 35mm does not allow you that luxury, and you

should take more than one just in case (from different angles).

HOUSE INSPECTIONS:

Note: These types of home inspections ARE NOT �structural �inspections that require

special licensing in most states. These are simply �physical� inspections that DO NOT

require special licensing.

This type of inspection is normally required by mortgage lenders and banks. It is to ensure the

bank or mortgage company that the property is not vandalized and not abandoned. You see,

banks loan the home owners lots of money for their homes and have a vital interest in its well

being. The banks will send out an inspector at least once a month to check on these properties.

Most of these properties are heading towards foreclosure or is in arrears in their payments. Always

check the instructions given on each inspection. It will inform you of the date that the inspection

needs to be completed, and the number of photos needed. Most of these inspections have a 5 - 10

day turnaround time. It is highly recommended that you try to complete your inspections ASAP.

You don't want to get back logged with to many inspections and not enough time to complete

them. Remember ORGANIZATION! You will only need to complete a simple report with no more

than 15 simple questions about the property and take a few photos. This should take you no more

than 5 minutes and it pays from $25.00 to $50.00. Prices vary from company to company. Some

will also include up to $5.00 per photo.

Can you count the amount of homes in your area? And if banks are constantly checking on the

condition of these properties on a monthly basis, do you see the potential of earning a great salary

in this little known industry. The real estate industry is booming and the more homes that are

being built, the more inspectors are needed. People are not able to keep up with their payments.

Which results in more work for you? See the big picture and capitalize on it! The demand is there,

the time is now!

PROPERTY INSPECTIONS:

This type of inspection is similar to the "house inspection". In property inspections you will be

required to indicate the square footage of the property, as well as reporting on the property's

condition. The questions on this type of inspection are usually longer than most. It deals with

hazardous conditions (if any exist), surrounding area, square footage, roof conditions, exterior

house condition, and photos. Insp. Pays $25 - $50.

Be advised that when you're taking photos get a clear angle of the property and try to focus on

the main components of the property. With a digital camera you can see the photo that you just

took. If the photo does not meet your expectations, you can delete it and take another.

Companies will not accept photos from a Polaroid. Only 35mm or digital cameras.

Also when photographing try not to have people in your photo. If someone is passing by, wait for

him or her to pass then shoot. If you're using a 35mm make sure when you develop your film to

get "double prints". The reason for this is you can file one with a copy of your report, and if you're

given the same assignment again, (which happens often in some cases) you'll already have a

photo to send. Same thing with a digital camera, when downloading your photos, save them to a

file and label it with the address that you inspected. If you should ever have to do a repeat

inspection, you will already have the photo in your file and can send it at a click of a mouse

REPEAT INSPECTIONS:

Repeat inspections are common in this industry, and could be a blessing in disguise if you're

fortunate enough to get them. There's nothing like repeated business. It's guaranteed income and

is routine. As mention earlier some Banks do certain properties on a monthly basis. If the property

is vacant you can use the same information from the first inspection for the repeated one, along

with your copy of your photo. Wow. You just made $50.00 and didn't go anywhere.

MERCHANT SITE INSPECTIONS:

These inspections are for new businesses that are using credit card services. The financial

institution wants to have proof that the company that applied for a merchant account is indeed for

real. Some companies require you photo just the signage. The inspection forms vary from

company to company and the pay is usually around $25 - $50, and the inspection usually takes no

more than 5 minutes. Most people have to work an entire hour just to make that much. If you're

in a large city, how many new merchants do you think opens a new account on a weekly basis?

That's right. Hundreds! Most of them will have to be verified, and that's where you come in at. Do

you see the BIG PICTURE yet?

FLOOR PLAN AND INVENTORY INSPECTIONS:

These inspections require you to go to a store and check their inventory. The big department

stores that you buy your appliances in are such places where these inspections are done. You see

the store's appliances are "loaned" to them by the manufacturer. When the store sells an

appliance, then they pay the manufacturer. The manufacturer in turn has to make sure that the

amount of merchandise loaned is actually there and in good condition. You will receive a list of

goods with model and serial numbers. You will then go to your assigned location and check your

inventory list to the merchandise on hand. Always make sure that you physically see the

merchandise and numbers. If the person showing you around suggests that he or she read off the

numbers to you, kindly decline, they could be pulling one on you. If a piece of merchandise is

missing, then you are to contact the company immediately and tell them.

Sometimes stores have more than one location and move their merchandise from store to store. If

you're told that it's at another location, get all the information for that location. (Address, phone

number and contact person). You may have to go to the other location to verify its existence.

Don't worry; you'll be paid for the extra trip. When a piece of merchandise is missing, payment

from the store to the manufacturer for that piece should have taken place. In the event that

payment hasn't been received, the manufacturer may require you to receive the payment on their

behalf. These types of inspections can be applied to almost any business. This can include

supermarkets to toy stores, and even auto dealerships. It doesn't matter. Can you imagine how

many stores that you know need an inventory or floor plan inspection regularly? These inspections

sometimes pay by the unit (each piece inspected) or one price, usually around $75 - $100. "Rush"

inspections for floor plan will be even more. Some companies will pay you for travel time also, and

time spent at the sight. If you go in fully prepared and a game plan, you should be out in 20

minutes. Pay scales in some parts of the country may vary. It also depends on the company that

you work for. Some that has been in the industry longer than others can afford to pay more than

those that are smaller and just starting out. In the beginning I didn't turn down anything. I took

jobs that paid $10.00, $15.00. I wanted to get as much experience as I could, and I was doing at

least 3 - 4 every hour. That's still more than what most folks make in an hour.

INSURANCE LOSS INSPECTIONS:

When someone suffers a loss due to flood, fire, or any other property damaging occurrence, and

before the bank or insurance company pays off any money. An inspection must occur. That's when

you come in. You will be given the address and phone number of the insured and you must

contact them to set up an appointment to inspect the property in question. After you set a date

and time, call the company and inform them of the arrangement. You will be required to take no

more than 8 photos of the damages. In most cases you will be paid roughly $5.00 per photo plus a

$25 - $50 inspection fee. You must indicate the damages in your report and mention the

percentage of the property that has the damage. Sometimes renovations have started already and

you need to report on how much progress has been made, and how long it will take to complete.

These types of inspections are normally completed no less than a week after receiving the

assignment. The insured is eager to get clearance so they can receive payment for their lost. Most

property owners have to come out of pocket, and get reimbursed when the inspection is

completed and the bank signs off on a payment to the insured.

INSURANCE INSPECTIONS:

Insurance companies need to know that the insured has no property hazards. Property hazards

increases the chances of someone getting hurt on the property. When someone gets hurt, the

insurance company has to pay. We all know that they like taking our money, but they don't like to

payout. Anyway, you will be the eyes and ears for the insurance company, should you be assigned

to an inspection. An inspection of the exterior of the property is all that's needed.

First knock on the property owner's door, and inform them that you would be doing an inspection

for the insurance company (state name of the insurance company) and if there are any locked

gates, they should be opened. You will need to access the back of the house for a rear photo. You

will look for anything abnormal. Like uneven sidewalks (where someone could trip and fall),

cracked steps, cracks in foundation or base of house. A measurement of the property in sq. ft. is

required, and photos. Insurance inspections should take no longer than 10 minutes. The pay is

usually $40 - $50. If you don't have a surveyor's wheel to measure the property, use the foot over

foot method to measure the property's measurements. You then time the length by the width to

get the total sq. ft. of the property. Example: If you measured a property and the length is 40 ft.

and width of the house is 20 ft. then 20x40=800 sq. ft.

COLLATERAL INSPECTIONS:

Collateral inspections are simple and quick. It's similar to a floor plan inspection. You'll be hired to

go and inspect some form of equipment for the company that's leasing it out to another. This

equipment can be computers, scanners, deli equipment, etc. The companies just want to know

that the equipment is there and is being used for the purpose that it was borrowed for. You must

also report on its condition. This particular inspection normally takes 5 minutes and pays $50+.

RUSH INSPECTIONS:

These inspections are like GOLD. If you can fit them into your schedule, by all means do so. They

usually need to be competed in 24 - 48 hours and the pay is almost double the normal pay. Rush

inspections is the banks way of saying I need this information RIGHT NOW! They will pay you $50

in a blink of an eye and not think anything of it. In some cases the inspection was assigned to

another inspector and they failed to do it in a timely matter, and it was reassigned with a sense of

urgency.

NOTE: Only accept assignments that you know you can Complete. Failure to complete

them on time may result in contract termination.

There is always room for another Inspector that's hungry and willing to do what it takes. One

inspector's loss will be another's gain. In the event that you can not complete an assignment

contact the company immediately. Companies in the industry understand that every now and then

inspectors encounter problems and some inspections aren't completed. Their level of

understanding is moderate. It's like any other job. If you in call sick too many times, they'll part

ways with you. If you loose a contract with a company, you won't be able to use them as a

reference when you're ready to sign with another. The more companies that you do inspections

for, the more experience you'll have. The more experience you have, the more work you'll get.

The more work you get... the more $$$ you make. It's that simple!

Remember that THIS IS A BUSINESS. You must treat it as such. You're in control of your own

destiny. If you act in a professional manner while running your business, you'll reap the benefits.

There are a lot of companies looking for reliable inspectors. There are many inspectors that are

not taking their responsibilities seriously. They're in it to make a few bucks and split.

If you carefully follow all the instructions given to you in this manual, and use professionalism,

then the sky�s the limit. In my experience with "Rush Inspections" I made $400 in a single day. I

did a total of 8 rush inspections in a 4-hour period. Each inspection paid $50.00. At the time, I was

under contract with roughly 7 different Field Inspection Companies. For this particular company I

was just in their data base (which means that I was put on a waiting list for employment). You

never know when your number will come up. All know is that it takes no time at all. When I got

the call, I jumped at the chance. I knew that once I do this RUSH for them, (it's like pulling them

out of a rut) more work will follow. The companies look at it as you doing them a big favor and

they won't forget you when the next round of assignments comes to your area. You will be their

first option. To make a long story short, I made $400 that day and almost $800 per month since.

Just from that one company.

So, when you're instructed to apply or send your resume to a slew of companies, do not hesitate.

These companies are hiring all over the country and new ones are starting up everyday and need

inspectors in the field.

CONSTRUCTION SITE INSPECTIONS:

Believe it or not, leasing and insurance companies have an invested interest in construction sites.

Their money helps provide some of the equipment used at a site. Some of this equipment is

leased, borrowed, or rented. These companies need to know that their expensive equipment is in

good condition and most of all, that it is on the site. If a company hires you to do a construction

site inspection, be prepared to inspect any and all types of equipment, from jack hammers to

cranes.

My first construction site inspection was to go to the site and inspect a mobile trailer that was

leased to the site for office use. I know you've seen those long trailers that have a bath, bed, sink

and office on these sites. Sometimes there's more than one. All had to do was take several

pictures of the trailer and report on its condition. I also had to verify the serial number on record

by locating it on the trailer (usually on the inside near the cabinetry). In some instances you are

required to contact the site and schedule a time and day to inspect the property. Other times you

can just go there without warning. These sites are used to inspectors coming in and out to inspect

equipment. So don't be scared going in. Just be polite and identify yourself as an inspector for...

(State the company that you're representing) and you're there to do an inspection. These

inspections pay anywhere between $50.00 and $150.00. It usually takes no more than 10 - 20

minutes (it depends on the amount of equipment that needs to be inspected). Most companies will

pay you for travel time and tolls.

OCCUPANCY INSPECTIONS:

Banks want to know if the person that they have on record is actually living at the property and

not leasing it to someone else. In this case, a photo of the residence and personal interview is

required. You just want to make sure that the person listed on your assignment sheet is the

person living there. You may be required to ask a few questions and report the answers back to

the bank. If there is no one home, a good way to tell if that person lives there is to check the

mailbox or intercom system and look for their name. Or you can ask a neighbor to verify the

person's residency. If the property is vacant, then mention that in your report. These types of

inspections pay between $25.00 and $40.00 each. In ALL the inspection reports that you fill out,

try to be as detailed as you can. The more information that you give to the bank; the better they

can access the information. When they constantly see a full and detailed report by your company,

you can rest assured that you'll be receiving more work from them. Keep in mind that there is no

set amount of assignments that you will receive from one company. It varies month to month.

Some months you will see a large volume of work, and others you won't. So it makes good

business sense to be contracted with as many companies as you can. When that is done, you will

see a steady stream of work.

COMMERCIAL INSPECTIONS:

These types of inspections include warehouses, office complexes, factories, healthcare facilities, or

any industrial sites. The company will require you to take up to 15 photos of the property (inside

and out). You will have to inspect the roof, basement, 10% of occupied rooms, and 10% of vacant

rooms. Elevators, stairways, and bathrooms are also included in your inspection. You will be given

a list of items to check, and you may have to collect a "rent roll" (it's a list of paying tenants).

When you're inspecting these properties look for anything that can be hazardous and put it in your

report. Note the condition of the roof and flooring. The exterior of the property must also be

inspected. This includes, sidewalks, docks, parking lots, and signage. The surrounding area must

also be reported on.

Again, make sure all photos are clear and take the amount of pictures that's listed in your

instructions. If you're instructed to take 10 photos, take 12. If you take less than 10, then you will

be instructed to go back and finish the job. Usually an appointment has to be made by you with

the contact person listed on your assignment sheet. That person will meet you and show you

around the facility. When doing these inspections, pay close attention to the questions on your

form and answer them correctly. There is always a rep name and number at the top of your

assignment form. When you're at the site and don't know how to answer a question, call them.

They are there to help you. So, don't hesitate to call. Believe me when I tell you that your final

report will be checked with a fine tooth and comb. You really don't want them calling you back,

asking all sorts of questions about your report. Its better to be safe than sorry and you don't want

to loose this contract because it pays from $50 to $200. That's right for only 15 - 20 minutes work!

I live in FL and once I had a commercial inspection for condominiums. I thought that I had to

inspect 4 different 10 story buildings. Boy was I wrong. Each building had 6 different entrances (it

was huge) and each entrance counted as a building. So I was looking at 24 entrances x 50 (the

price paid for each bldg.) All the buildings were connected and were replicas of one another. I

took about 35 photos and spent nearly 2 1/2 hours at the property and made $1,200. I'm not

telling you these stories to gas you up. It really did happen, and it will happen to you too! Be

diligent and you will prosper. If you keep a positive perspective on the things that you do, positive

results will follow. It's all in your state of mind. It is obvious to me that you want to make changes

in your life, or you wouldn't have brought this manual. You are definitely moving in the right

direction. Just believe in yourself and don't be afraid to take chances.

DELINQUENCY INSPECTIONS:

Delinquency Inspections are not for the faint of heart. Although they pay well, they involve face-

to-face contact with individuals who are behind on their car, mortgage, lease or other payments.

They also have special rules you MUST abide when doing them.

REMEMBER, YOU ARE NOT REQUIRED TO DO DELINQUENCY, OR ANY OTHER TYPE OF

INSPECTIONS THAT YOU ARE UNCOMFORTABLE WITH!

Banks, insurance companies, and other lending institutions will hire a Field Inspection Service

company to send contractors (you) to do an inspection on the property that they have an interest

in. It can be a house, car, boat, or mobile home. The institutions want to know the condition of

the property that they have a vested interest in, and if a payment is overdue, they want to know

why? This type of inspection requires a face to face interview with the "buyer" (the person that

has possession of the property in question). This is called "direct contact". If direct contact is made

you are required to ask the buyer the reason for their inability to pay, and when do they expect to

send a payment. Update their phone numbers (both work and home), and if possible, put them on

the phone with one of the company's reps. In most cases, the buyer is late on a car or mortgage

payment.

In a situation where the buyer isn't home, usually a letter from the institution is given to you to

affix to the buyer's front door. This letter is to be inserted and sealed in a #10 envelope,

addressed to the buyer with the word confidential written on the envelope. Never enter the

buyer's home, or accept any type of payment. Children are off limits and should not be

interviewed. If they are 16 or older you may attempt to get a telephone number. Always be polite

and identify yourself when interviewing someone. Some companies require that you make an

attempt to contact two or three of the buyer's neighbors to verify that the buyer in fact lives at the

address given to you. Only one attempt to contact is needed

A photo of the residence (house, apt. building, or mobile home) or collateral (car, boat,

motorcycle, act.) is usually needed. The company will provide you with a report with basic

questions concerning the inspection. Some sample questions are: a) Color of the property? b) How

many stories? c) Does it have a garage? d) Type of property (house, apt., high rise, ECT) e) Did

you make contact? f) With whom? g) Was the collateral there? This report is to be filled out fully

and accurately by the inspector. Failure to provide an accurate and detailed report may result in

non payment. Most companies have the ability for you to fill out your report online thru your home

computer. Your digital photos can also be attached and sent along with your report. The

advantage of having a computer with a digital camera is that your work is processed much faster,

which means you get paid a lot quicker. Imagine waiting a few days just to get your film

developed, and then mailing your reports and photos (another 3 to 4 days). The company may

instruct you to make your visits certain times of the day or evening, and after each visit you MUST

call the company's representative and report your findings. Delinquency inspections usually pay

between $20.00 and $30.00 including photos. Not bad for 5 to 10 minutes work. Imagine if you

did 3 - 4 every hour? Now imagine if you were doing these types of inspections for 5 different

companies? See the big picture? Remember your main objective is to make contact if possible. Do

not harass the buyer, that is not your job. You are there to collect information�period, not get in a

conflict. Try to put the buyer and company in contact with each other via cell phone.

Organization is the key to a successful inspection. You will normally have 2 to 3 days to complete

delinquency inspections. If you situate your work load properly, you can maximize your earning

potential. I can almost assure you will receive request to perform delinquency calls. It may seem

intimidating, but after doing a few, you'll find that this is the easiest money that you ever made. I

was a little apprehensive when I first started. A lot of the times the buyer is not home, and when

they are, they're not co-operative. You just give them the letter and keep it moving. If they refuse

to answer your questions, just indicate it in your report.

INSPECTOR'S CONDUCT CODE FOR DELINQUENCY INSPECTIONS:

THERE ARE FEDERAL REGULATIONS AND GUIDELINES THAT PERTAIN TO DEBT

COLLECTION THAT ANYONE DOING DELINQUENCY INSPECTIONS MUST ABIDE BY.

*DUE TO THE FACT THAT YOU MIGHT BE INTERVIEWING CUSTOMERS IN REFERENCE TO DEBT

COLLECTIONS. YOU ARE REQUIRED TO FOLLOW THESE INSTRUCTIONS.

SUMMARY

All the various types of inspections that you've just read are basically the meat and potatoes of the

field inspection industry. There are more types which require additional training, and certifications.

Of all the types of inspections listed, which ones appeal to you the most? I hope you said ALL!

In the beginning take what you can get and get your foot in the door. After you begin to receive

assignments and get to know the routine, you'll be ready to take on other types of assignments.

Then soon you'll be able to pick what type of inspections that YOU want to do, and charge what

you want. Do yourself a favor, and re- read over the types of inspections in this manual? Then get

a calculator and seriously figure out how much money you think you can make in this industry.

SETTING UP YOUR BUSINESS:

If establishing yourself as a business, you will receive a Tax ID number from the govt. for tax

purposes. This will be the number that you use when you fill out your tax forms. I highly

recommend that you establish yourself as a business. It's real simple and has a load of tax

advantages. When you set up a home business, you can deduct a lot of your everyday expenses.

For example, if you have a 2,000 sq. ft. home and 200 sq. ft. office, you could deduct 10 percent

of many expenses. Here are some of the most typical deductions:

A percentage of your rent if you rent or lease.

A percentage of your mortgage interest if you're buying a home

A percentage of real estate taxes and home owner association fees

Household supplies and cleaning services for the business portion of your home

Repair and maintenance of your home office

Utilities (electric, gas, water) attributable to the business use of your home

Trash collection

Furniture in your household that you convert for use in the home office

-Phone services, minus the base local service for the first line into your home (lines devoted to the

internet and faxing maybe entirely deductible)

-Business use of your automobile from the time you leave your door Any money that is used to

establish your business can be used as an expense deduction. Also any equipment that you need

to purchase to run your business (computer, fax Machine, cell phone, printer, ECT

Taking all the deductions you're eligible for can offset the higher cost of health insurance you have

to pay as a self-employed person. For more information, see IRS publication 587, Business Use of

Your Home. Or seek professional advice from your accountant.

In order to operate your work as a business, you must obtain a business certificate. There is a

small application fee to file for one. Go down to your county courthouse and you can file for one

there. You first will have to decide on what name you want to operate under. Once you decide on

a name, you must check their data base and make sure no one in your city has the same name.

There is a computer there, where you can enter your business name and if there are any

duplicates it'll show. Some people use their first and last name with the word enterprises on the

end. Once you pay your fee, your certificate is given to you on the spot. (Don't forget to save your

receipt for deductions)

You can also ask the clerk for a form to file for you Federal Tax ID number. Just fill out the form,

mail or fax it and your number will be mailed to you in about 3 - 4 weeks. You can then use that

number to open a business account at your local bank. Don't just open an account in ANY bank.

All banks have different business account fees. Shop around and pick the one with the best value

(no fees, free checking, etc.). You can use this account to deposit the checks that you would be

receiving from the various companies that you'll be working for.

*Please be advised that the companies will not be withholding taxes from your pay. You will be

responsible for your own taxes. Each company will be filing form 1099 with the IRS (this form

indicates how much money was paid out to you for that tax year). So save your stubs and when

you file your taxes, report the right amount that you been paid for that year, because they already

know. Keeping accurate records is just part of running your own business. For further information

in dealing with your taxes consult your accountant or tax advisor. It is not mandatory that you

operate under a business name. Many inspectors operate independently. Keep in mind that if

you're not operating under a business name, you won't reap the benefits of having one. The

deductions that you can make will out weigh the money that you'll have to pay back, thus creating

a handsome return. Having your own company looks more professional and will attract more

business.

RESUMES (Note: Most applications are now taken online.):

You must prepare a resume for yourself. It is a necessity in this business. You will need many

copies to forward to all the various companies that appeal to you. Some companies have on-line

applications on their websites. In those cases fill them out online, and you may still forward your

resume by email or fax. Below you will find a sample for a �simple resume�. Just follow the format

and you should be good to go. If you don't have any experience, don't worry. On your resume

include on it the types of inspections that you're willing to do. You must prepare a list of zip codes

that you will be willing to cover, and include them in your resume. It would be wise to purchase a

map of your city with the zip codes listed on the areas that pertain to them. The larger your

coverage area, the more work you'll receive. Most companies assign work by zip codes. All your

contact information should be on it. Including an e-mail address (if you have one), and fax

number. You may be required to include your Social Security or Tax ID number (ONLY send your

social security number if requested by the company).

MARKETING TECHNIQUES:

IN ADDITION TO ONLINE REGISTRATION, FAXING OR EMAILING YOUR RESUME TO ALL OF THE

COMPANIES IN THIS MANUAL, I WILL GO OVER SEVERAL DIFFERENT IDEAS AND MARKETING

TECHHNIQUES THAT I USED TO GET STARTED IN THE FIELD SERVICES INDUSTRY.

LETS TALK ABOUT ADVERTISING YOUR BUSINESS.

FIRST YOU SHOULD STUDY EVERYTHING ON THE WEBSITE (SOFI) WWW.SOFI-USA.COM. THIS

IS RICHARD LAW�S WEBSITE. HE IS A LEADER IN THE INDUSTRY. THIS WEBSITE IS A GREAT

SOURCE OF INFORMATION. RICHARD ALSO PUBLISHES THE �NATIONAL FIELD SERVICE

DIRECTORY�, WHICH NOW LISTS ALMOST 2000 FIELD SERVICE COMPANIES (NATIONAL AND

REGIONAL) WHERE YOU CAN SEND YOUR RESUME AND GET WORK.

ALSO, ALWAYS KEEP AN ACCURATE E-MAIL LIST. BELIEVE ME IT WILL COME IN VERY USEFUL IN

THE NEAR FUTURE. ALWAYS ASK FOR AND TRY TO OBTAIN EVERY EMAIL

ADDRESS THAT YOU POSSIBLY CAN GET FROM ALL FIELD SERVICE COMPANIES. I WILL TALK

ABOUT WHAT TO DO WITH THESE LATER ON IN THIS SECTION.

STARTING OUT, I THINK YOU SHOULD DO ANY INSPECTION THAT IS OFFERED TO YOU (ONLY

IF YOU ARE COMFORTABLE WITH THEM).

GO TO THE WEB SITES WE HAVE LISTED, JUST TAKE YOUR TIME AND GET FAMILIAR WITH THE

FIELD INSPECTION COMPANIES AND WHAT TYPE OF INSPECTION EACH COMPANY OFFERS.

THEN YOU CAN FILL OUT THIER ONLINE REGISTRATION OR EMAIL/FAX YOUR RESUME TO EACH

COMPANY AND START MAKING MONEY IN AS LITTLE AS 10 DAYS. (SOME AREAS MAY VARY).

THIS IS A GROWING BUSINESS AND ALL FINANCIAL AND INSURANCE COMPANIES NEED THIS

SERVICE. THEY SIMPLY CAN'T AFFORD �COMPANY REPS� IN EVERY AREA OF THE COUNTRY TO

DO THIS WORK.

STEPS TO SUCCESS:

1. DECIDE ON WHETHER YOU'RE GOING TO OPERATE AS A BUSINESS OR INDEPENDENT. IF

BUSINESS THEN GO THROUGH THE PROPER ACTIONS LISTED IN THIS MANUAL. YOU CAN

START OUT AS AN INDEPENDENT AND THEN CONVERT TO A BUSINESS ALSO.

2. CREATE A RESUME INDICATING THE TYPES OF INSPECTIONS THAT YOU'RE FAMILIAR WITH

AND ALL YOU'RE CONTACT INFORMATION AND THE ZIP CODES THAT YOU'RE

WILLING TO COVER.

3. GET ACCESS TO A COMPUTER AND VISIT THE WEBSITES IN THIS MANUAL. MAKE NOTES.

4. FAMILARIZE YOURSELF WITH ALL THE SAMPLE FORMS AND TYPES OF INSPECTIONS IN THIS

MANUAL.

5. PURCHASE THE DIRECTORY (ONLY IF NEEDED � GREAT SOURCE FOR REGIONAL

COMPANIES).

6. MAKE A LIST OF All THE COMPANIES IN YOUR AREA THAT YOU WISH TO CONTACT.

7. APPLY ONLINE, FAX OR EMAIL ALL OF THE COMPANIES LISTED IN THIS MANUAL, AND ALSO

ANY NEW COMPANIES YOU CAN FIND ONLINE YOUR RESUME INFORMING THEM OF YOUR

AVAILABILITY. GET CONTACT NAMES AND DEVELOP WORKING RELATIONSHIPS WITH YOUR

COMPANIES

8. AFTER 2 - 3 DAYS MAKE SOME FOLLOW UP EMAILS. YOU MUST BE PERSISTANT.

9. RE-VISIT WWW.FIELDINSPECTOR.COM FOR NEW JOB UPDATES. DO THIS ONCE A WEEK.

10. MASTER THE MANUAL. RESEARCH THE INDUSTRY AND COMPANIES. CONTACT ALL OF THE

COMPANIES IN MY MANUAL!

COMPANY RESOURCES:

This manual contains a directory with over 100 reputable �National� Field Service Companies who

regularly hire new contractors. This list is constantly updated and you should contact ALL of these

companies before spending any money on the larger directory described in the next paragraph.

There is a National Field Service Directory that you can purchase. In it you will find hundreds

REGIONAL and NATIONWIDE Field Service Companies that ARE willing to hire you. You'll be

amazed at how many of these companies exist in your area. It includes the companies along with

a brief description of the type of inspections they perform. Don�t just go through the directory and

pick the companies that are in your area, if you live in AL, a company that advertises as �national�

in NY may need your services. You can either call them or fax them your resume. The publisher of

the directory is named Richard Law and he can be reached at 1-888-529-7424. He can also give

you some insight on the industry. When you order the directory, you or your company is then

listed and other companies will contact you. (I do not profit in any way from the sale of Mr. Law�s

directory).

Also, you can always use your internet search engine to find work. There are hundreds of

companies out there waiting for your call. Just type in "Field Inspections" or "Field Inspection

companies" or even "Field Service Companies". You'll be surprised to see the amount of companies

that are looking for inspectors (contractors).

LOCAL OPPORTUNITIES:

Familiarize yourself with the manual and all the different types of inspections in

it. Once established and experienced, you can also contact local banking, loan, insurance,

mortgage, leasing, advertising and real estate companies in your area. Also, contact these type

institutions in surrounding cities. Let them know that you can save them the time and expense of

sending their own personnel all the way to your town.

***Practice what you're going to say before you call, so you can sound like you know what you're

talking about.

If you will capitalize on all of the information and resources in this manual, you should be working

in weeks. As with everything, it truly depends on YOUR effort and desire. If you're just going to

make a few phone calls and wait for something to happen then don't expect much. But if you're

diligent, and put forth an hones effort, you WILL succeed in this industry.
