Frequently asked questions
How current is Salem's permit data?
permits.llc indexes new Salem permits within 24 hours of filing — the table below reflects today's records. Subscribers get the full permit (contractor name, valuation, house number, work description) on daily or hourly alerts.
Where do Salem permits come from?
Direct from the Salem building department's online permit portal. permits.llc normalizes, de-duplicates, and enriches the data — the source records are public.
What's hidden on the public page?
House numbers, contractor names, valuations, permit numbers, and work descriptions are reserved for subscribers and paid CSV exports. Public pages show the filing date, street, town, and permit type — enough to gauge volume, not enough to compete for the job.
How do I get Salem permits delivered daily?
Subscribe to alerts. Pick the permit types and buyer niches you care about; permits.llc emails a daily digest (or hourly with homeowner contacts on Exclusive plans).
