Quarterly or annual commitment

Full refund within 30 days · Every bad record credited · Volume-floor credit below 60% of the floor Terms

  • You are the only subscriber who receives that trade in that county
  • The territory's weekly volume, shown before you buy
  • A volume floor: in a month below 60% of the stated floor, a credit of your fee × (floor − records delivered) ÷ floor; for example, 50 records against a floor of 100 on a $799 fee earns $399.50

The permits stay public records: anyone can still look them up at the county. Exclusive means no other subscriber of ours receives them.

Price set per territory by its weekly volume. Every territory is open in the territory table.

Questions

Do you include the contractor's license number?

Not yet. Each permit names the contractor company and links to the official record; license numbers are not in the feed until we can check them against the state's license file.

Permit data is weeks old.

We collect every weekday morning. The newest permit in our data, by area: Miami-Dade (county-issued) Nov 1. Every row shows its issue date, and a permit appears once the agency publishes it.

It's mostly junk: owner-builders, out-of-area jobs.

Owner-builder permits are removed; you get only the trades and counties on your plan, with an optional minimum job value.

My competitor gets the same leads.

Each trade and county goes to at most 5 subscribers, counting Local, Pro and Team together, or to one exclusive subscriber. The territory table shows the seats taken.

Bid sites locked me in.

No contract on monthly plans. Cancel in one click; cancel within the first 30 days and the plan is refunded in full.

I can browse Miami-Dade permits free elsewhere.

Yes, several sites let you browse them. We do something narrower: every weekday morning, only your trades' new permits from the county building department, companies only, owner-builders removed, shared with at most 5 subscribers, with a CSV and credit for bad records.

Do you cover the City of Miami, Hialeah or Miami Beach?

The City of Miami, yes: its own building department's permits are a separate area (City of Miami, city-issued permits). Hialeah and Miami Beach, no: their own building departments' permits are not included. The Miami-Dade source is the county building department's permits: mostly unincorporated Miami-Dade, plus county-issued permits inside cities.

Do you include notices of commencement or contacts?

Not yet. Today the feed carries building permits; we'll email subscribers when notices of commencement or checked contacts start.
