Which markets does Groundbreak cover?

Austin, TX; Atlanta, GA; Miami, FL; Nashville, TN; Tampa Bay, FL; Charlotte, NC; Dallas-Fort Worth, TX. Each market is read from its own county and city sources, and the coverage page lists exactly what each one publishes.

How much does it cost?

A free account opens three files to start, then one a week. Pro is $99 a month for one market or $199 for all of them, with 7 days free. Team is $299 a month for five seats. Cancel anytime.

Where does the data come from?

From the public record: city and county permit feeds, the county clerk and register of deeds indexes, the appraisal rolls, and the planning commission and council agendas, read every morning. Every row links to the document it came from.

How is it different from Dodge or ConstructConnect?

Those products sell researcher-verified bid-stage leads nationally. Groundbreak shows the record itself in seven Sunbelt markets: the permit with the contractor on it, the deed, the construction loan, the notice of commencement, and the trade sub-permits, each tied to one project.

Who is Groundbreak not for?

Anyone working outside the 7 markets, for now. Residential remodelers and home-services trades: the feeds are read for commercial and multifamily work. Firms whose day runs on bid documents and plan rooms: Dodge and ConstructConnect carry those and we do not. Anyone who needs a sale price in Texas or Georgia, which neither state discloses.
