Mission: BuildingBeam™ LLC aims to revolutionize the way property data is accessed and utilized. Our mission is to empower property owners, potential buyers, contractors, real estate agents, property managers, campus planners, and city officials with concise, intelligent building reports that deliver instant insights into property history and permit activity. Unlike traditional services, BuildingBeam reports are brief (1–3 pages) yet powerful—enhanced with AI-driven analysis and tailored suggestions. Depending on data availability, reports may include permit timelines, contractor history, permit costs, code violations, and energy-related metrics—all synthesized for clarity and decision-making.
