A Different Kind of Prospecting Research

An Angi Leads Alternative — Public Permit Research for Contractors

Consumer-lead marketplaces start with homeowner enquiries. PermitGrab organizes public building-permit records, their source dates, and the fields actually available by market. A permit can support project research, but it is not a promise that an owner wants a bid.

Frequently asked questions

Real questions contractors have asked us. If yours is not here, email [email protected].

How is PermitGrab different from Angi Leads?

A consumer-lead marketplace begins with a homeowner enquiry. PermitGrab is a public-record research product: it organizes building-permit activity, source dates, and fields that the source makes available. The underlying records are public and non-exclusive, and a permit is not proof that an owner wants a bid.

Why are Angi leads so bad?

Lead quality depends on the service, market, and your follow-up process. If a consumer-lead channel is not a fit, evaluate other channels on your own costs, contact rate, booked work, and retention rather than relying on generalized claims about any one provider.

How do I cancel Angi Leads?

Check your Angi Pro agreement and account settings, or contact Angi support, for the current cancellation process. PermitGrab is month to month; see the current pricing page and your account terms for plan details.

Are these records exclusive?

No. Building permits are public records, not exclusive form-fill leads. PermitGrab organizes available public records by market and trade; other people may be able to access the underlying municipal source too.

How current is the data?

Freshness varies by municipality and source. Each city page shows its public source, newest published record, and available update cadence. Review those signals for your market rather than assuming every city publishes the same day.

Do records include phone or owner details?

Some sources publish a contractor business name or phone; owner fields can also be available from public property records. Availability varies by city and record, and city pages disclose coverage rather than promising a phone or owner for every permit.

How much does it cost?

Pro is $149/month flat. No annual contract. Cancel anytime. No per-lead fee, no shared-lead surcharge, no surprises.

Can I try before paying?

Yes. Start a 14-day trial to review the cities and public-record fields that matter to your business. A card is required to start; cancel before the trial ends to avoid the monthly charge. Coverage still varies by market.
