Tell us about your property and your goal. We handle the research, the forms, and the framing — you handle the ribbon-cutting.
Your property address (or one you're eyeing) and what you want to do: add an ADU, run a short-term rental, build a duplex, change a use, get a setback variance.
We resolve your parcel, pull its zone and overlays, and map the approval path: allowed by right, variance, special exception, or rezoning — with citations to the actual ordinance.
What's required, what it costs, how long it takes, and how similar requests in your area have performed. Decide with confidence before spending real money.
We select the correct forms and complete them with you. Narrative sections — hardship statements, variance justifications — are drafted using the framing found in successful applications for similar requests in similar zones.
If your project needs an architect's or engineer's stamp, we route the package to a licensed partner and manage the handoff. One less thing on your plate.
Filled forms, every required attachment, the fee schedule, and exact filing instructions — which portal, which deadline, which board meeting your application lands in.
Municipal approval isn't random. Boards and departments show consistent patterns in what they approve — by zone, by permit type, by how the request is framed and documented.
Permitio analyzes years of public permit and zoning-case outcomes to understand those patterns, then puts them to work for your application.
All analysis is built on public records and aggregated at the department and zone level.
Not yet. We deliver a complete, ready-to-file package with exact filing instructions, and you submit it — in Chattanooga, that's typically through the city's online portal. Full-service submission and status tracking are on our roadmap.
No. Permitio prepares application documents based on public data and the facts you provide. We're not a law firm and don't provide legal advice. For legal questions about your property rights, consult an attorney.
Many permits require drawings or a licensed professional's stamp. Permitio partners with licensed architects and engineers and coordinates the sign-off as part of your package.
No one can — the decision belongs to the city. What we do is make sure your application is complete, correctly targeted, and framed the way historically successful applications were framed, so you never lose on avoidable mistakes.
