Public records · Dallas-Fort Worth
DFW building permits, by city
Updated November 2026 · Latest pull: Monday, November 9, 2026 (657 permits from cities with a public feed)
Dallas, Fort Worth, and Plano publish daily issued-permit data that DFW Permit emails to contractors, filtered by trade. Frisco coverage is partial. For other DFW cities, these pages explain the official lookup portal and say plainly when we do not have a daily feed.
Figures below are from the Monday, November 9, 2026 pull, not estimates. Official city portals remain the authority for a single record.

What a permit list is for
Contractors use newly issued permits to find addresses where work is about to happen — usually the adjacent job, not the job already named on the permit. A new pool permit is useful to a fence company; a new house is useful to a pool builder. How contractors use permit data explains that in more detail.
How to look up a permit yourself
