Who we are looking for?
We are currently looking for a Home Maintenance Inspector with an eye for maintaining home standards for not only our guests but also for our homeowners. As a Home Maintenance Inspector you will be responsible for inspecting homes after every guest check-out and prior to every homeowner arrival to ensure the home is in the best condition possible.

If you have an eye for detail, this position will be perfect for you!
POSITION SUMMARY:
What will you do?
A day as a Home Maintenance Inspector consists of visiting various properties throughout the day checking for any damage caused by the previous guests, or any maintenance issues that might arise through normal use of the home.

Minor tasks such as changing light bulbs and tightening fixtures will be necessary, and experience in home maintenance is highly recommended.
