These are the project types our partner firms take on most often, self-performing with their own in-house crews.

Permit Matching vs. a contractor marketplace
Permit Matching is not a marketplace or lead broker — we co-own the licensed LA County firm that builds your project, so you work directly with the builder at a fair market price with no markup.
A marketplace sells your contact info to several contractors who then compete for the job. Here is how that differs from working with an owner-operated firm we co-own.
| Feature | Contractor Marketplace | Permit Matching |
|---|---|---|
| Who you reach | A lead broker that sells your info | The owner-operated firm itself — direct to the builder |
| Ownership | No stake in the contractors listed | We hold equity in (co-own) the firm that builds |
| Number of bids | 4-6 competing contractors chasing you | One accountable firm built for your project |
| Your cost | Markup or lead fee baked into the bill | Fair market price, no markup — we earn as owners |
| Who does the work | Subcontracted to whoever’s available | Self-performing, in-house crews |
| Relationship | Transactional hand-off to a stranger | Long-term — we’ve worked alongside the firm for years |
