How do HVAC contractors get leads from building permits?

Every new home, addition and major remodel is a building permit before it is an air-conditioning job. Because permits are public records, you can see those projects, with the address, the scope, the declared value and the general contractor, the week the county issues them. In Lee County, Florida that is 130 to 150 new homes a week. PermitRadar lists every one of them free and sells the same list joined to the owner's mailing address, one HVAC business per area.

Which Lee County permits signal HVAC work

Said plainly: Lee County's weekly residential building report does not include standalone mechanical or change-out permits, so PermitRadar does not list those and does not claim to. What it gives an HVAC contractor is the new-construction pipeline, by builder and by area, every Monday, plus the remodel and addition work on existing homes.

Why permit leads beat shared HVAC leads

Lead platforms sell the same homeowner to several HVAC contractors for $50 to $100 or more each. A permit is a public record of a real project with a fee paid to the county, it names the contractor, and the PermitRadar list for an area goes to one HVAC business only. The whole area costs $349 a month, and the first two weeks are free.
