STR permit leads for real estate agents
A short-term rental permit marks a property its owner runs as a business. For an agent that is a defined farm: 275,665 licensed rentals in 26 states, each with a property address, most with an owner or licensee name, and 111,698 with a phone or email from the public record.

What the data lets you do
Farm investment owners
Permit holders own a property they rent by the night, a different audience from a general homeowner list. City pages break each town down by ZIP, so you can farm the areas you already work.
Spot portfolio owners
Where the register names the owner, we count how many different addresses each name holds. A name on several addresses belongs to an investor who may buy or sell more than once.
Mail the address-level markets
Texas, Nashville, Seattle and several other registers publish no phone numbers. The property address and the name on the permit are enough to mail, and a county property search gives you the owner's mailing address.
Watch permits that lapse
Registers that publish status list expired and cancelled permits next to active ones. An owner who let a permit lapse may have changed plans for the property.

What the data does not tell you
Permit data says a property is licensed for short stays. It does not say the owner wants to sell, what the property is worth, or whether it is still rented. Listing intent is yours to find out.
Compliance
Real estate cold calls are telemarketing under the TCPA and the National Do Not Call Registry, and many permit phones are personal mobiles. Your state's real estate licensing rules on solicitation apply as well. Public availability is not consent. Read the compliance guide.
