New business leads for apartment building service providers in Portland & Vancouver, WA

A new apartment building signs its service contracts before the first tenant moves in: bulk internet and TV, laundry equipment, package lockers, parcel and valet trash, EV charging, smart locks and access, trash and recycling. The owner chooses most of them during construction. A new-building permit for apartments means those decisions are being made now; a pre-application conference is the same project a year or more earlier, when the amenities are still being planned.

Launch Lookout pulls new-building permits from Portland Permitting & Development, Clark County and the City of Vancouver every day, along with Clark County pre-application conferences, and maps them around your market. Permit descriptions say what is being built and usually how many units, and many carry a valuation.

The developer or owner behind the permit is the one who signs, and the public record names the applicant. Reach them at the pre-app stage for anything that affects the design, such as conduit for bulk internet or laundry rooms, and when the permit is filed for everything else. Unit counts tell you the size of the contract before you call.
