Three benefits that pay for themselves

Refer at least 10 subscribers a year and every one of these benefits is yours — for as long as you stay active in the program.

🏷️

50% Off Property Reports

As an active affiliate account holder, you get 50% off every Permit Notice property report — for life. Pull the full permit history on any property for just $12.50 instead of $24.99, with no limit on how many you order. Use them for your own inspections or offer them to clients as a premium add-on.

✓ 50% off every report

Just $12.50 per report instead of $24.99 — order as many as you need, all year long.

💵

$100 Per Referral

Every person who signs up for any Permit Notice plan using your affiliate code puts $100 in your pocket — flat, guaranteed, no matter which plan they choose. Whether they pick Starter at $49 or Enterprise at $499, you earn $100 the moment they subscribe. No tiers, no minimums per referral.

✓ $100 per paid signup
Paid on the 15th of the following month via ACH or PayPal

A deal they can't get anywhere else

Your referral link isn't just a tracking link — it unlocks an exclusive welcome offer that makes it easy for your contacts to say yes.

You already know everyone who needs this

Think about every person you interact with on a transaction. Each one has a reason to want daily permit intelligence — and you're the perfect person to introduce it to them.

🏡

Real Estate Agents

Pool and addition permits signal upcoming listings. New construction permits mean buyer opportunities. Every agent you know is a warm lead.

💼

Real Estate Investors

Permit data is alpha for investors. New builds and teardown permits show up weeks before the MLS. Investors will sign up fast once they see a live feed.

📋

Title Agents

Open and expired permits complicate closings. Title agents who run permit checks alongside title searches catch issues early and close cleaner deals.

🛡️

Insurance Brokers

Re-roof and new construction permits are warm leads for updated coverage. Daily permit alerts turn cold calls into timely, relevant outreach.

🏠

Fellow Inspectors

Your colleagues in other markets or newer inspectors building their practice will appreciate knowing the permit history of a property before they arrive on site.

🔨

Contractors

Every permit pulled is a project to bid on. Contractors who monitor the permit feed find new work, track active developers, and identify homeowners primed for follow-on jobs.

🏦

Lenders

Permit data surfaces new construction loans, renovation financing needs, and properties with unpermitted work that could affect appraisals — before anyone else in the deal knows.

Four ways to share. All of them work.

You don't need to be a marketer. Your reputation and your professional network are the only tools you need — here's how inspectors are putting them to work.

Everything you need to know

Maintain at least 10 active paying referrals at any point in the year. "Active" means they're currently subscribed to any Permit Notice plan — if a referral cancels, a new signup replaces them in your count. We track this automatically in your affiliate dashboard.
Referral commissions are paid on the 15th of the month following the signup. So a referral who subscribes on June 3rd would generate a $100 payment on July 15th. Payment via ACH direct deposit or PayPal — your choice at registration.
As an active affiliate account holder, you get 50% off every Permit Notice property report — $12.50 instead of $24.99 — with no limit on how many you order. The discount is applied automatically at checkout for as long as you stay active in the program, and it never expires.
Yes. Order reports at your 50% account-holder rate of $12.50 each and use them however you like — pull them for your own inspections, include them as a premium add-on to your inspection package, or resell them to clients. The savings are yours to keep or pass along on top of your affiliate income.
Yes — the 20% first-year discount applies to all plan tiers: Starter ($49/mo → $39.20/mo), Pro ($149/mo → $119.20/mo), and Enterprise ($499/mo → $399.20/mo). The discount applies to all 12 months of their first year, not just the first month.
No cap, ever. Refer 10 or refer 100 — every paying subscriber you bring in earns you $100. The more active referral partners you have in your network, the larger your monthly payout.
If your active referral count drops below 10, your Pro plan billing resumes at the standard $149/month rate. Your cash commissions and property report allocation continue regardless — only the free plan benefit is tied to the 10-referral threshold.
