STR permit leads for smart lock and device companies
Absentee hosting is what sells remote devices. In Metro Nashville's register, 64% of the permits classed by occupancy are for homes the owner does not live in, and PermitPulse carries 125,065 records with a phone number in all.

What the data lets you do
Go after the absentee permits
Nashville marks each permit owner-occupied or not, and the export keeps that label. An owner who lives elsewhere can't let a guest in by hand.
Quote by the portfolio
One name on twenty addresses is twenty locks and one decision. The big-operator filter shows you those names first.
Check local noise and occupancy rules
Many cities attach conditions to the permit. Our city pages link the official local rule, so you can tell an owner what their own town asks of them.
Catch new permits
An owner setting up a first rental is buying equipment anyway. Pull records first seen in the last 30 days.

What the data does not tell you
Nothing in a register says what is already on the door. Expect plenty of owners to have a lock they like, and ask before you pitch.
Compliance
Texts about a product need written consent, and calls need a Do Not Call scrub. Email needs a working opt-out under CAN-SPAM. Public availability is not consent. Read the compliance guide.
