PermitPulse · verified STR permit data
Verified short-term-rental permit leads.
302,337 short-term-rental permits, pulled straight from official government registers across 46 states. 104,962 come with a phone or email attached. A verified operator with a permit on file is a far better lead than a scraped Airbnb listing.
Counts refreshed 2026-07-25 · 21,002 records filed in the last 12 months.
What PermitPulse is
A single, current dataset of licensed short-term-rental operators — the people who filed for a permit to run an Airbnb, Vrbo or other short-term rental.
Every record is built from public government records: official short-term-rental permit and licensing registers, not scraped from listing sites. That means you get the operator's real name and property address, the permit itself, and a phone or email where the public record includes one. It is the difference between a page you can look at and a person you can reach.
It is not an occupancy or revenue estimator. If you are researching a market to buy property, that is what AirDNA is for. PermitPulse is for the companies that sell to the operators — the ones who need to reach thousands of active, licensed hosts directly. If you're new to this kind of data, start with STR permit records, explained.

What's in every record
Pulled from the public permit filing, normalized into clean fields.
- Property address
- Owner / host name
- Permit ID
- Permit type & status
- City
- County
- Filing date
- Phone and email where present in the public record
Of the 302,337 records, 104,962 include a phone or email — 103,243 with a phone and 46,749 with an email. Contact coverage varies by state, because it depends entirely on what each government register chooses to publish; every state page tells you which kind of file you are getting before you buy.
Why permit holders beat scraped listings
Generic listing-scrapers and resold broker files can't give you this.
Government-verified operators
A permit is a public signal that someone is actively, legally running a short-term rental. A scraped listing is just a page — no verified name, no address, no way to reach the owner directly.
Direct contact, not a platform handle
You get the owner's name, property address, and a phone or email where it's on record — not an Airbnb alias hidden behind a booking form.
Primary source, not a recycled file
This is pulled fresh from the government registers themselves, not a stale list that ten data brokers have already resold.
Built for sellers, not investors
Investors buy AirDNA to model revenue. PermitPulse is for companies that need to reach the operators themselves, at scale. Full comparison of the options →
