First Question To Ask

2014 will be the year when almost ALL of the national and regional mortgage field service firms will require field service representatives to pay for a background check. I expect the average fee with be about $65. WOW! Ask the question about background check fees upfront before you waste a lot of your time talking to mortgage field service firms offering $3 mortgage inspections. Don’t waste time talking to a mortgage firm recruiter to only find out at the end of the conversation that the fees are $3 (about $1.50 in profit) and the background check is $65 (44 inspections to pay for the background check).

In the U.S., about 99% of all businesses do NOT charge the applicant for a background check. The MORTGAGE segment is the home of the lowest fees in the field services industry and the home of firms that require the field inspector to pay for a background check. These firms are making huge profits at your expense.
