About The Position
Are you a visual storyteller with an eye for detail and a knack for seamless execution? Ziprent (a subsidiary of TurboTenant) is looking for a independent contractor (1099) Real Estate Photographer & Field Operations Specialist to be our eyes and ears on the ground. This isn’t just about snapping a few photos; it’s about crafting the digital first impression for our rental properties and ensuring every home is "rent-ready" through meticulous property walkthroughs and technical setups. In this role, you’ll serve as a vital link in our growth engine, transforming empty spaces into high-performing listings. You’ll work independently to manage everything from 3D tours and high-fidelity photography to smart lockbox installations and condition reporting. If you love the freedom of the road and have a "tech-forward" approach, we want to talk to you.

- Proven Experience: A strong real estate photography portfolio showcasing your ability to capture spaces effectively.
- Tech-Savvy Toolkit: Professional gear including a high-quality wide-angle lens and a 360° camera compatible with Zillow.
- Editing Expertise: Advanced photo editing skills to ensure every shot is polished and professional.
- Mobile Proficiency: An updated mobile device capable of capturing clear, detailed images for on-site walkthrough reports.
- Collaborative Spirit: Excellent written communication skills and a professional demeanor when representing the Ziprent/TurboTenant brand.
- Reliability: A valid driver’s license, a reliable vehicle, and a flexible schedule to handle multiple shoots per month.

Nice To Haves
- Compliance Knowledge: Familiarity with FHA and housing compliance (smoke alarms, CO detectors, etc.).
- Efficient Workflow: You stay ahead of the curve by leveraging modern tools and smart processes to streamline documentation, reporting, and day-to-day tasks—maximizing productivity without sacrificing quality.
- Tech Comfort: You have a "can-do" attitude when it comes to learning new property management software.
- AI-Native Workflow: You use modern tools to streamline your editing or reporting process for maximum efficiency.

Responsibilities
- Visual Storytelling: Deliver 15–25+ professionally edited, high-quality interior and exterior photos that make our listings pop.
- Immersive Tech: Capture Zillow 3D tours and digital floor plans using a 360° camera to provide prospective tenants with a "true-to-life" experience.
- Property Stewardship: Perform initial property walkthroughs and submit comprehensive condition reports to ensure our high standards are met.
