Permit Data for Insurance Market Research

Use public permit activity as a market-research input alongside your licensing, consent, and compliance processes. PermitGrab shows source-backed records and available fields by market; a permit does not establish a claim, policy need, or insurance eligibility.

What you get

Each market page identifies its public source, newest published record, and available fields before you subscribe.

Source-backed construction and repair activity by covered market
Addresses, project categories, and owner or contact fields where published
Source date and available fields shown before planning outreach
Public records are research signals, not verified insurance opportunities
Use only with the consent, licensing, and outreach rules that apply to your business
$149/mo flat with available-record export for internal research
Source-field example

Start with one named filing record.

New York City DOB NOW electrical permit filings publish a general-liability company field and a general-liability expiration field. Review one selected public filing before you choose a market or start a trial.

Check one NYC electrical filing record or read which contractor insurance fields public records actually publish.

Boundary: a historical filing field is not a certificate of insurance, carrier verification, current coverage conclusion, policy recommendation, or permission to contact a business.

Frequently asked questions

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

How does this beat traditional insurance lead vendors?

It is a different workflow, not a substitute for verified insurance leads. PermitGrab organizes public permit records. Evaluate those records, current provider terms, and your own compliance obligations before using any outreach channel.

Can I filter to just my licensed states?

You can select covered markets in the product, but you are responsible for using only the jurisdictions and outreach practices allowed by your licences, carrier relationships, and applicable law.

What about commercial insurance leads?

Some sources publish commercial project types or values, and some do not. Review the relevant market page before relying on a field for research or outreach segmentation.

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.

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.

Can I import the leads into my CRM?

Available records can be exported as CSV on Pro for use in a CRM or internal research workflow. Exported fields reflect what the public source publishes, or what a documented public-record match supports, for that record.
