The Problem with Traditional Lead Services in Miami-Dade County
Miami-Dade County contractors typically pay $30–75 per shared lead through services like Angi, HomeAdvisor, or Thumbtack — and those same leads get sold to 4–5 competitors. For a market this active, that's a losing model.
What Growing Miami-Dade County Contractors Do Instead
Every building permit filed in Miami-Dade County is public record. PermitGrab tracks 12,192 active building permits in Miami-Dade County alone, plus 5,343 code violation records — both updated daily from the city's open data feeds.
That means 4,357+ published contractor names appear on Miami-Dade County permit records. Where the city supplies them, PermitGrab keeps the published contractor field, permit type, project description, declared project value, and phone field together. A permit record documents a filing or issuance; it does not identify a bid, a request for service, or permission to contact anyone.
The Miami-Dade County Advantage
Countywide permit volume across Miami-Dade municipalities keeps the county's permit activity high year-round. Published permit records can help a team prioritize an address, scope, or labelled role for independent research; they do not report bid timing, vendor selection, a request for service, or permission to contact a person named in the record.
