A building permit is the single best lead a Massachusetts contractor can get: a homeowner who was just approved to spend money on their property — and your trade may be next on the list. This guide shows how to turn Massachusetts permits into a steady stream of qualified jobs.
On pay-per-lead sites, five contractors chase the same homeowner. A building permit is different: it's a public record of real, funded intent. When an owner pulls a permit for an addition, they'll soon need roofing, HVAC, electrical and finish work — and reaching them first, with the address and project type in hand, wins the job.
You can pull permits yourself from each town's records — hours of manual work across dozens of municipalities in inconsistent formats — or let MassPermits do it. We compile every permit, structured by trade and town, as a ready-to-work list. Start with a free sample.
