Building permit data is one of the earliest indicators of new home construction activity. For building product manufacturers, understanding where homes are being built, who’s building them, and which contractors are involved is essential to identifying opportunities and staying competitive.
But not all permit data tells the full story.
Traditional permit datasets can be fragmented, difficult to analyze, and cluttered with remodeling and renovation permits that distort the picture of actual new home construction. Turning that information into actionable intelligence often requires extensive filtering, manual analysis, and valuable time.
That’s why Zonda developed PermitVision.
Now available within Zonda Enterprise Building Products, PermitVision transforms extensive building permit data into clear, actionable market intelligence, giving manufacturers a more complete view of residential construction activity and the relationships driving it.
Better data. Clearer insights. Smarter decisions.
PermitVision combines cleansed and enriched permit data with Zonda’s proprietary research intelligence to deliver a more accurate and actionable view of new home construction activity, builder performance, contractor relationships, and market opportunities.
Seamlessly integrated into the intuitive dashboards within Enterprise Building Products, PermitVision eliminates the need for cumbersome data filtering and extensive manual analysis. Instead, users can quickly access granular permit intelligence to understand what’s happening across their markets and make decisions with greater confidence.
And because construction activity doesn’t stop at the boundaries of tracked subdivisions, neither does PermitVision.
By providing visibility into permitting activity across entire metropolitan markets, PermitVision helps manufacturers identify construction trends, builder activity, and emerging opportunities that may otherwise go unnoticed.
Unlock new opportunities for building product manufacturers
For building product manufacturers, understanding builder activity is only part of the equation. Knowing which contractors are involved in new construction projects can be just as valuable.
PermitVision provides deeper visibility into builder-contractor relationships, offering valuable intelligence to inform sales strategies, market prioritization, and opportunity sizing.
With PermitVision, building product manufacturers can:
- Identify potential sales opportunities: Discover construction activity and builder relationships across their markets.
- Understand builder-contractor networks: Gain insight into which builders and contractors are working together and where.
- Evaluate market potential: Use granular construction intelligence to better understand market activity and size opportunities.
- Prioritize growth opportunities: Identify active builders, emerging markets, and areas of concentrated construction activity.
- Monitor market movement: Track changes in permitting activity to recognize emerging trends and shifts in construction demand.
By connecting construction activity with builder and contractor intelligence, PermitVision helps manufacturers make more informed decisions about where to focus their resources and pursue new business.
