About RemodelTrends
RemodelTrends is a public-facing renovation market intelligence platform built to help homeowners, researchers, local media, and industry observers better understand remodeling activity at the local level. The site uses residential permit data to highlight where renovation demand appears to be growing across cities, ZIPs, and project categories.
Why RemodelTrends Exists
Most local remodeling information is scattered, delayed, or difficult to interpret. RemodelTrends was created to organize permit-based activity into clearer trend signals that make it easier to spot where projects are increasing, which categories appear to be gaining momentum, and how local markets may be changing over time.
What the Platform Tracks
RemodelTrends focuses on residential permit activity as a leading indicator of remodeling demand. The platform is designed to organize permit records into useful views by geography, project type, valuation, and recent activity patterns. Over time, it may expand to include additional markets, new data sources, and broader regional comparisons.
Who It Is For
The site is designed for homeowners planning projects, journalists looking for local housing-improvement trends, researchers exploring neighborhood change, and professionals who want a clearer view of where renovation activity appears to be building.
Current Focus
The first version of RemodelTrends is focused on Montgomery County and is being built as a scalable model that can eventually expand to additional cities, counties, and states. The goal is to create a repeatable renovation trend platform that combines public data, clear methodology, and accessible reporting.
About the Data
RemodelTrends uses publicly available residential permit data and organizes it into easier-to-read trend views. Because permit records are not a perfect measure of all renovation activity, the platform is intended to show directional signals rather than exact market totals.
