Browse to any city page on permitgrab.com/cities. Filter by permit type (re-roof, pool, signage, HVAC, tree removal). Every record has the homeowner name, address, permit date, and where available the contractor that pulled the permit. Export to CSV or run the list down your call-route.
Public permit data is public — anyone can run a play off it. The advantage isn't exclusivity; it's TIMING. You're working off a permit that was filed 48 hours ago. Most of your competitors are still buying shared form-fills from Angi 3 weeks after homeowner intent peaked.
We collect permits daily from the city and county portals. Most cities show permits within 24-48 hours of issuance. The 'Today's Hot Leads' block on each city page shows permits issued in the last 7 days.
Yes — owner phones where available (from enrichment), plus the contractor's business phone where the permit data publishes it. Coverage varies by city — Phoenix, Miami-Dade, San Antonio currently top 3 by phone count.
