Heads up — limited source for this city Boston's public open-data feed reports the licensed individual filing each permit rather than the business they work for — names like "Iliya Iliev" rather than "Iliev Roofing LLC". Permits + addresses + project values continue to refresh, but we can't surface contractor business names + phone numbers from this jurisdiction's public records the way other cities expose them. We're working on a state-licensing-DB join to recover the business affiliation.

About Boston Building Permits

Boston, Massachusetts processes building permits covering residential construction, commercial buildouts, renovations, and specialty trade work. PermitGrab tracks 6209+ Boston building permits — newest permit date: 2026-09-19 from official city sources.

Each record can show the project address, scope, permit type, and value where the city publishes them. The source-published contractor records do not meet the coverage threshold for this city. PermitGrab does not represent this as contractor-contact coverage. Where property-owner records are available, they are matched to permit addresses separately.

How to use Boston permit data

Boston 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.
Home service companies
An addition or remodel can be useful project context for HVAC, plumbing, or warranty outreach. Review the project signal before outreach.
Solar installers
Roof permits and electrical upgrades in Boston provide project context for solar-market research. Filter by the current project signal and verify ownership separately.
Insurance agents
Boston renovations can identify properties for a policy-review workflow. Confirm coverage needs independently before contacting a property owner.
Material suppliers & manufacturer reps
Choose a product-line research workflow, then use published job type, description, and value fields where available for territory and demand research. A permit is not a materials order, purchase signal, or open bid.
Developers & new construction
Sort source-published new-construction records by project value and type to research active projects and property activity.
