National building-permit dataset

National building-permit dataset (91M+ permits, 51 states, 1,422 jurisdictions) enriched with a state license-board join: contractor license numbers, canonical contact, workers-comp insurance status and EPA lead-safe certification attached per permit, plus derived roof age/material and contractor activity rankings. Latent assets beyond the permit rows themselves: the FL DBPR license-resolution join (16M+ permits), 152K verified contractor profiles with 12-month activity ranks, and per-jurisdiction fill-rate grading.
