**What We Do**

Wise Living is an exciting and rapidly growing business, which provides high-quality, purpose-built housing for the private rental market.

Our aim is to revolutionise the private rental sector by challenging existing standards, creating and nurturing communities and, ultimately driving better living standards for our customers and tenants.

We offer our institutional investor clients a one stop service under one roof covering all parts of the process from site identification and development through to letting, management and maintenance of the properties.

**Your life as a Property Inspector**

As an integral part of our business you will be responsible for preparing property condition reports for our properties prior to a tenant moving in and also when they have just moved out. You will be visiting our properties whilst they are tenanted every six months to ensure our tenants are happy and reporting on any issues that have appeared in their home.

Playing an integral part in the collection and storage of new property keys when new sites are handed over so attention to detail is a must. You'll appreciate the freedom of going out and about independently and relish the responsibility of checking each property, noting every detail and producing accurate inventories - being scrupulously thorough even when you're on a tight schedule

You'll be absolutely dedicated to meeting deadlines, because you know we always keep our promises to clients. And if tenants are home when you visit, you'll enjoy chatting to them and acting as something of an ambassador, taking the opportunity to make sure they're happy and committing to getting any issues sorted.

Paid mileage.
