A Hillsborough County GC starts the week in PermitMap with every permit type in view — new construction, additions, and major renovations — sorted by valuation. This week a regional builder filed six new-construction permits in one subdivision, and two whole-home renovations over $150,000 posted in established neighborhoods.
The GC reaches the builder directly about the subdivision while subs are still being assembled, and contacts the renovation owners during the scoping window when there's room to shape the project. Recurring trade names on the week's permits also point to reliable subs worth a relationship. Each lead arrives with an address, scope, and value, so the estimator focuses only on jobs that fit. By working the biggest projects first every Monday, the GC builds a predictable bid pipeline instead of waiting on referrals that arrive after the work is already spoken for. Week over week that early visibility compounds: the GC builds relationships with the same active builders and developers, so future projects often arrive as direct invitations rather than competitive bids.
We include all construction permits: new home builds, additions, major renovations, commercial build-outs, and tenant improvements. You see the full scope of construction activity in your county, not just one trade.
Most GCs use the data to track competitor activity, identify neighborhoods with high construction activity, find homeowners planning major renovations, and connect with developers on new projects. Some also use it to find subcontractor opportunities on larger projects.
Your report shows all permits with estimated values so you can focus on projects that match your target size. You can quickly scan for new construction, additions, or renovation projects.
