Hi Samantha,

Government property inspectors examine sewer and water systems, buildings, dams and highways to ensure that they are in compliance with governmental codes and standards and will be safe for the public to use. Inspections may take place during construction or remodeling, as well as periodically over the life of the property. A government property inspector also ensures that products and structures meet contractual agreements and stipulations.

Individual employers may show a preference for candidates who have completed a certificate program, coursework or an associate degree in building or construction technology, architecture or engineering.

Government property inspectors must be able to read complicated codes and statutes and use them to evaluate products and structures. Both oral and written communication skills are highly desirable. Investigative skills and good judgment are necessary to provide fair and accurate reports.

• Ensure structures do not pose a hazard to the general public.


• Ensure that products and structures meets contractual agreements and stipulations.
