Heads up — limited source for this city Washington DC's permit feed publishes the licensed individual who filed each permit (architect, engineer, or expediter), not the contracting company. We do not treat those applicant names as contractor-business records. Permit, address, project-value, and available public owner context remain visible where this source publishes them; check the displayed source date for recency.

About Washington Building Permits

Washington, District of Columbia processes building permits covering residential construction, commercial buildouts, renovations, and specialty trade work. PermitGrab tracks 22581+ Washington building permits — newest permit date: 2026-10-14 from official city sources.

Washington permit data, by use case

Same data, different angle. Pick the playbook that matches what you sell.

Real estate investors
Review published code-enforcement records with property context where linkage is available. A violation is a research signal, not evidence that an owner intends to sell.

Washington renovations can identify properties for a policy-review workflow. Confirm coverage needs independently before contacting a property owner.
