Every contractor knows the difference: leads you generate yourself convert. Leads you buy from Angi/HomeAdvisor/Networx get shared with 4 others, ghost, and burn your time. PermitGrab is the systematic version of self-generated — we surface every building permit filed in 1,000+ US cities so you can reach homeowners directly, before your competition even knows the permit exists.
Real permits filed in the last 7 days. Contractor names and phone numbers unmask on the trial.

Cancel anytime. Your leads aren't resold to four competitors like Angi or HomeAdvisor.
Every count above is live from the PermitGrab database. Here's what's in the product.
Real questions contractors have asked us. If yours isn't here, email [email protected].
Self-generated means non-shared and source-authentic. Angi takes one homeowner form and sells it to 5 contractors — pure shared lead. PermitGrab gives every subscriber the same underlying public-record permit feed, but each contractor decides who to contact, when, and with what offer. The lead is generated by YOU from raw data, not handed to you in a queue. Same pattern as buying a list of foreclosure addresses vs. buying a shared 'motivated seller' lead.
Anyone who subscribes to PermitGrab sees the same underlying public-record data, yes. But two things make this different from shared-lead aggregators: (1) most contractors don't know permit data exists or how to act on it — early-mover advantage is real for 12-24 months, and (2) the data is public; anyone could pull it themselves, we just save them the months of work. Storm-chaser roofers have been doing this manually for years.
No. Building permits are public records — every PermitGrab subscriber in a given city sees the same underlying list, but unlike Angi and HomeAdvisor, we don't sell the same lead 5 times to compete with you. You decide who to call.
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.
PermitGrab is $149/month flat. No annual contract. Cancel anytime. No per-lead fee, no shared-lead surcharge, no surprises.
