Building permits are public records — and a goldmine for contractors who know how to read them. Here's how Massachusetts permits work and how to put them to work.
Before most construction, renovation, or system work, a property owner must file a permit with their city or town's building department. It records the property, the type of work, the declared project value, and the permit holder.
Massachusetts building permits are public records. The address, work type, valuation and permit holder are all disclosable — which is exactly what makes them usable as leads. MassPermits compiles these public records so you don't have to chase each town.
Every municipality publishes permits differently — some via online portals, some as monthly PDFs, some only at the counter. Aggregating them statewide by hand is the hard part. We do it and organize the result by town and by trade.
A permit tells you who is spending, where, and how much — the three things you need to win a job. Pair it with a fast, personalized outreach and you have a repeatable pipeline. See a free sample →
