Central Texas Building Permit Report
Every day we collect the building permits filed with city and county permit offices across the Austin metro and score each one for how likely it is to turn into paid work for a trade contractor. This report counts the qualified ones: new homes, additions and remodels scoring 70 or higher out of 100.

Burnet County
We collect permits from Marble Falls. Volume here is small right now, mostly custom homes and remodels, so we don't publish weekly counts. Hill Country contractors usually start with a Travis County pack, 50 leads for $50.
Not covered yet
We don’t collect city permits from Round Rock, Leander, Kyle or Pflugerville city limits yet, so their numbers here only include homes that fall under a county or neighboring city permit office. When a city’s own feed goes live, it will show up in this report.
How we count: a “project” is one address; several permits for the same job count once. Figures cover permits issued in the 30 days up to November 4, 2026 and change as late permits post. Source: official public permit records.

A Lead Pack is the 50 best permits in your county from the last 30 days, scored and sorted with phone numbers first, emailed in about a minute. $50, one time, no subscription. Not sure yet? Get 5 free.
