Project discovery, not advertising

Two different approaches to researching construction activity. Farpace focuses on permit research from public records — not generating inbound inquiries for you.

Traditional marketing channels

  • Relies on inbound interest
  • Requires ongoing spending to stay visible
  • Timing may not align with when projects are permitted

Farpace project research

  • Research construction activity from public permit records
  • Review permit filings relevant to your services
  • Decide which records to explore further — before using credits

How permit research works

Search public permit records, evaluate scope, and access full public record details only when you need them.

Step 1

Search permits in your service area

Filter Los Angeles building permits by project type, neighborhood area, and who filed — owner or contractor.

Step 2

Review scope from public records

Read work descriptions and filing details for free. Decide which remodeling, addition, or ADU filings fit your services before spending a credit.

Step 3

Access full public record details when ready

Use one credit to access the property address, LADBS permit link, and additional public filing information for records that warrant deeper research.

Built for efficient permit research

Spend time on records that match your trade — not on manual portal searches.

Monitor construction activity

Recently issued permits surface home renovation, room addition, and ADU filings from public records.

Evaluate before accessing full details

Review scope and general area before requesting full public record details for a specific filing.

Spend credits selectively

Search and filter for free. Credits apply only to records you choose to access in full.
