Construction Leads in Miami-Dade County
Miami-Dade publishes a contractor name on effectively every permit record, which is the single most useful property a permit feed can have. The coverage is county-wide rather than city-only, so it reaches well beyond Miami itself.
The same four steps, whether the buyer is a builder, a designer, an owner or a company you want to acquire.

How much is being permitted
Permits by year in Miami-Dade. 2026 is a partial year counted to September 3, 2026, so its bar is shorter for that reason rather than a slowdown.
Miami-Dade has produced 139,222 permits since January 2024: 20,993 in 2024, 70,921 in 2025 and 47,308 so far in 2026. Counted on September 3, 2026.
What the Miami-Dade record actually carries
The record is the county's permit dataset, which carries a contractor name and an estimated value on each record. Because the county rather than a single city publishes it, one feed covers the municipalities inside it, which is unusual and worth knowing when you set a territory.
What a trade contractor should know about this market
- County-wide coverage in one source. A trade working several municipalities in the county reads one record rather than chasing separate city portals.
- Renovation and rebuild volume is constant. Building stock in this climate is worked on continuously, and the record reflects steady alteration and replacement volume rather than only new starts.
- Contractor names on every row. The permit tells you who is already doing work in the area, which is a directory of active firms as much as a list of projects.
- Set territory carefully. County-wide means a broad feed by default, so narrowing to the municipalities you actually serve matters more here than in a single-city record.
What Builtie carries in Miami-Dade
Miami-Dade carries full depth: the permit history rather than a single snapshot, projects scored against your trade and territory, an inferred build stage so you can tell an open package from one awarded months ago, and the people who award the work traced past applicants and numbered companies to a named person with email, phone and LinkedIn where each can be verified.
When your package is bought
The buying window does not move with the city. Concrete and excavation are committed before the site is visibly dug, framing is booked while the foundation cures, roofing and cabinetry are decided during framing, and painting is awarded while drywall goes up. Our guide to when each trade is decided maps all of them against the five build stages.
Builtie plans start at $550 per month per seat for 50 matched projects a month, and $880 for 200. Every plan includes done-for-you LinkedIn and email outreach, and there is a 7-day free trial with 10 projects.
Frequently asked questions
How many construction permits does Miami-Dade issue?
Miami-Dade has issued 139,222 permits since January 2024: 20,993 in 2024, 70,921 in 2025 and 47,308 so far in 2026, counted on September 3, 2026. The 2026 figure is a partial year.
Where does the Miami-Dade permit data come from?
The city's own official open-data service. Builtie reads the record the city publishes rather than a resold copy of it, then adds the history, the scoring, the build stage and the decision makers on top.
Does the Miami-Dade feed cover the whole county or just the city?
The county publishes the record, so it reaches beyond the City of Miami into the municipalities within Miami-Dade. That is an advantage for a trade covering several of them, and a reason to set your territory deliberately.
How does Miami-Dade compare with the other cities Builtie covers?
