$100, excl GST per inspection

Milk Chocolate is looking for a sharp-eyed, reliable property inspector to be our boots on the ground in Greater Melbourne.

Our immediate needs are primarily in Melbourne’s inner west, around Yarraville / Newport, and the eastern suburbs, around Box Hill. We also occasionally receive briefs in other areas, including the bayside and south-east (such as Hampton and Bentleigh) and the inner north (such as Brunswick and Preston).

We welcome applications from inspectors who can reliably service our priority areas, as well as expressions of interest from those covering other parts of Greater Melbourne for future opportunities.

You'll visit properties on behalf of our clients and bring them to life, capturing what the listing photos won't show and giving our team the honest, observational detail they need to make confident recommendations. This is a practical, mobile role.

About Us

Milk Chocolate is a buyers agency helping clients plan, research, buy, and manage property across Australia. We operate end-to-end, from initial strategy through to settlement, and our on-the-ground intelligence is a key part of how we deliver for clients.

Must have:

- Must have: an ABN
- Must have: A current driver's licence and your own transport
- Must have: Flexibility to attend inspections during the week and on Saturdays. Where possible, we'll work with you to arrange a viewing time that suits you, but if a private time can't be accommodated an open home attendance may be required.
- Must have: Willingness to travel to either of our two priority areas, Newport (inner west) or Box Hill (east), within the $100 inspection fee.




- [Expressions of interest to be specifically stated outside these areas]

What You'll Do

- Conduct non-invasive, visual property inspections on our behalf across Greater Melbourne
- Photograph and video the property thoroughly, capturing what the listing won't show, such as visible mould, rotting timbers, or wall cracking. This is an eyes-and-ears inspection, not a technical one. (Formal building and pest assessments are done separately)
- Assess and report on liveability factors: natural light, noise sources, smells, street feel, presentation, and general condition
- Feed observations back to our purchasing team promptly and clearly
- Inspections are arranged as opportunities arise (Ad Hoc basis). Some weeks/ fortnights may have no inspections, while other weeks may involve two or three.
- We provide an inspection app for capturing photos, videos, and inspection feedback. We'll take successful applicants through the app and how to use it.
- You'll receive $100, excl GST per inspection

What You Bring

- A genuine eye for property, you notice what others walk past
- Solid written communication; you can describe what you saw in plain, honest terms
- Reliability and punctuality, our clients and timelines depend on you showing up
- A smartphone capable of good photo and video quality
- Experience in real estate, property management, or building trades is an advantage but not essential
- May be required to complete a police check prior to commencement.

What We Value

We are nimble, insightful, passionate, and authentic. We'd rather have an inspector who tells us a property smells like mould and the neighbours are noisy than one who tells us what we want to hear.

Pay: $100.00 per day

Work Location: On the road
