Who it’s for
Built for painters, remodelers and finish trades
Shared leads get sold to several crews at once. Ads charge you for clicks from people who aren’t ready. Door-knocking random blocks burns crew hours.
Philly Reno Feed gives you a short daily list of homeowners who just opened a renovation permit. A kitchen remodel, bath remodel or interior wall removal almost always means paint, drywall, flooring and finish work next. You hear about it the next weekday morning, with the owner and property details already matched.
Why these permits make good leads
Painters & drywall
Wall removals and remodeled rooms need finish work. Layout changes (~15/week) and kitchen/bath permits (~16/week) are the clearest signals.
Flooring & kitchen/bath
A homeowner who just permitted a kitchen or bath is already budgeting for cabinets, tile, flooring and fixtures.
General remodelers
Residential addition/alteration permits (~58/week) flag active renovation. We tag LLC and investor owners so you can skip flippers who already have a crew.
Inside every email
What you get
One email every weekday morning with every new Philly renovation permit since the last email. That’s about 88 a week; there were 379 in the last 30 days. A CSV is attached for your CRM or mail list.
For each lead:
- Property address and ZIP
- Owner name
- Owner mailing address, plus absentee and likely-investor/LLC flags (about 1 in 5 look like LLCs)
- Assessed market value (City of Philadelphia OPA)
- Year built, property type, stories and square footage
- Permit number, type, issue date and status
- Fit tags: kitchen/bath, layout change, renovation, higher value, likely investor/LLC
Optional bonus: recent residential deed transfers (“new homeowners”) from the city’s RTT data when available — with the lag disclosed, because that dataset currently trails by about two months.

Where the data comes from
Every lead is built from public City of Philadelphia open data. Check any of it yourself.
- Permits: L&I building and zoning permits — EZ Bathroom & Kitchen Remodel, EZ Interior Non-Load-Bearing Wall Demo, and Residential Building “Addition and/or Alteration”.
- Owner, value, year built: Office of Property Assessment (OPA) property records.
- New homeowners (optional): Real estate transfers (RTT) deed recordings. Buyer name and sale price are public; the feed currently lags ~2 months behind (latest recording in the open dataset: Aug 11, 2026).
- Freshness: the city posts permits about one day after they’re issued; we match and send them the next weekday morning.
Philly Permit Feed is independent and not affiliated with the City of Philadelphia.
Also available: the roofing feed
Solar, gutter and siding contractors use our daily re-roof permit list (~40 a week). Same price, same inbox.

FAQ
Questions
Who is it for?
Painters, general remodelers, flooring, drywall, kitchen and bath contractors who work in Philadelphia. It isn’t for GCs who already pull these permits for their own jobs.
Where does the data come from?
From City of Philadelphia public records. Permits come from L&I (EZ Bathroom & Kitchen Remodel, EZ Interior Non-Load-Bearing Wall Demo, and Residential Building Addition and/or Alteration). Owner, value and year built come from the Office of Property Assessment (OPA). Optional new-homeowner deeds come from the city’s RTT summary. See the source datasets.
How fresh is it?
The city posts permits about one day after they’re issued. You get them the next weekday morning. Home-sale deed data currently lags about two months behind.
How many leads will I get?
It depends on what the city issues. Recently that’s been about 88 a week, or 379 in the last 30 days — roughly 16 kitchen/bath, 15 layout-change and 58 addition/alteration permits a week.
Are some permits pulled by investors or GCs already?
Yes. Roughly 1 in 5 owners in the last 30 days look like LLCs or investment entities, and about 1 in 3 are absentee. We tag those so you can skip them or treat them differently. The rest are more likely owner-occupants planning finish work.
Are the leads exclusive?
No. Permits are public records. We do the digging, add owner and property details, and send them to you every weekday so you can move first.
Can I cancel?
Yes, anytime. It’s $79/mo with no contract. Reply to any email to cancel.
Can I see a sample first?
Yes. Email hello@phillypermitfeed.com with subject “Reno sample” and we’ll send you a recent digest free.

The fine print
Philly Permit Feed redistributes public records published by the City of Philadelphia. A renovation permit often means a contractor is already engaged for that scope of work. We sell timing signals for adjacent finish trades (paint, drywall, flooring, related remodel work). These are not exclusive leads, and we don’t guarantee that work is available, that owners can be reached, or that jobs will close. Some permits are pulled by investors or GCs who already have a crew — those are tagged when detectable. Verify permit status with the city before outreach. You are responsible for complying with CAN-SPAM, TCPA, Do-Not-Call and all other applicable laws.
