This is a per project-based opportunity (1099 contract basis) with flexible scheduling and reimbursed travel.


Scope of Work

  • Inspect multifamily apartments and nursing homes
  • Assess building systems and conditions: mechanical, electrical, plumbing, structure, life safety, and handicap accessibility.
  • Identify current issues and estimate future capital needs.
  • Provide written summary of property assessment, including general conditions, ages and quantities of building components, and provide all field notes & photos.
  • Review maintenance records to determine component replacement history.
  • Review of construction documents, if available.
  • Coordinate with property representatives; review building exteriors, common areas, mechanical spaces, and a sample of dwelling units.
  • Arrange and complete project-related travel
  • Communicate findings with D3G contacts.
  • Prepare written reports with observations, recommendations, and cost estimates, when requested as part of the contract.

Desired Background and Skills

  • Strong analytical and problem-solving skills.
  • Clear written and verbal communication.
  • Ability to stay organized and work independently.

Additional Valued Experience

  • Experience in construction management, supervision, contracting, or skilled trades.
  • Intermediate knowledge of accessibility design requirements for individuals with disabilities (Fair Housing Act, ADA).
  • Intermediate knowledge of green building practices or certifications.

  • Contractors are responsible for managing their schedules, methods, and tools to complete assigned work.
  • Compensation is provided on a project or assignment basis.
  • Contractors are not eligible for employee benefits.
  • A written agreement will outline the scope, payment terms, and reimbursement of approved travel expenses.
