Overview

What Is a Field Inspection?

A field inspection is a physical visit to a property — typically ordered by a mortgage servicer, lender, insurance company, or asset management firm — to verify the current occupancy status, condition, and safety of a home or commercial building.

Inspectors do not enter the property. Instead, they photograph the exterior, complete a standardized report form, and submit everything digitally — often within 24 hours. These are sometimes called property preservation inspections, drive-by inspections, or mortgage field services.

As a licensed notary professional already serving central North Carolina, Aldora's Apostille & Notary Service brings the same attention to detail, reliability, and professionalism to every field inspection assignment.

What We Do

Types of Field Inspections Offered

We handle a full range of standard inspection types requested by servicers and property management companies.

🏠

Occupancy / Vacancy Inspection

Determine whether a property is currently occupied, vacant, or abandoned. Includes exterior photos and an occupancy determination based on visible evidence.

📋

Property Condition Inspection

Document the overall condition of the exterior — roof, siding, windows, lawn, and visible structural elements — with a standardized condition rating and photos.

🔏

Initial Secure / REO Inspection

Verify whether a foreclosed or bank-owned property has been properly secured (locked, boarded, winterized) and document any visible hazards or damage.

🌿

Grass / Lawn Condition Check

Note the status of the property's lawn and landscaping to support property preservation decisions. Often paired with a general exterior inspection.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do you enter the property during a field inspection?

What counties do you serve?
We currently serve Harnett, Cumberland, Lee, Moore, Hoke, and Wake counties in North Carolina. If your property falls outside these areas, please reach out and we'll let you know if we can accommodate your request.
How are photos delivered?
Photos are delivered digitally along with your completed inspection report. We can work within your platform's submission requirements or deliver via email with time-stamped and geo-tagged files.
How quickly can you complete an inspection after it's assigned?
Our typical turnaround is within 24 hours of accepting an assignment. For urgent or rush orders, please contact us directly so we can discuss availability and priority scheduling.
