Millbrae, CA Building Permits: Where to Search
AddressIntel does not track Millbrae building permits. We ingest building-department records daily from the San Mateo County and South Bay cities on our permit tracker, and Millbrae is not one of them, so the city's own permit records (Millbrae Building Permit portal, linked below) remain the authoritative source for filings there. What we can bring to a Millbrae deal is the surrounding market: permits from the cities we do cover, plus teardown and ROI scoring across the Peninsula.

The free weekly Peninsula Plays brief
One email a week on Peninsula permits, teardowns and sales: what sold, what is sitting, and which houses just pulled the permit that says they are about to change. Built from permits, parcels and recorded sales, no spam.
Why Developers Target Millbrae
Across the Peninsula, older and smaller homes on large lots are being demolished to build luxury spec homes, and Millbrae shares the housing stock that drives it. AddressIntel's algorithm identifies those aging properties from Floor Area Ratio (FAR), recent neighborhood comps, and permit velocity, in the San Mateo County cities we ingest. It does not run on Millbrae, because we do not hold Millbrae permits or listings to run it on.

Millbrae & San Mateo County Building Permits
Where Millbrae permits actually live: Millbrae Building Permit portal (eProcess360, account required). AddressIntel does not ingest Millbrae, so that is the system of record, not this page.
For a Millbrae building permit or demolition filing, go to the city directly: Millbrae Building Permit portal (eProcess360, account required) holds the record, and we do not mirror it. AddressIntel's San Mateo County building permits dataset covers the cities listed on our permit tracker, which does not currently include Millbrae. That dataset is still the fastest way to read the San Mateo County market a Millbrae project competes in, and every filing in it is scored for developer ROI and teardown potential.

Millbrae Teardown & Permit FAQ
How many teardown opportunities are there in Millbrae?
AddressIntel currently tracks 14 high-probability teardown opportunities in Millbrae, scored by lot value, structure age, and neighborhood comps.
What is the typical developer ROI on a Millbrae teardown?
We do not publish a Millbrae figure, because Millbrae is outside our coverage and we have not measured one. Developer ROI anywhere depends on land cost, build spec, and timeline; our teardown ROI guide walks the residual land value model you would run by hand on a Millbrae lot.
Where can I find recent Millbrae building permits?
From the city itself. Millbrae Building Permit portal is the system of record for Millbrae filings, running eProcess360, account required. AddressIntel does not carry Millbrae permits, so we would rather point you at the source than imply we mirror it.
Does AddressIntel track Millbrae permits?
No. We ingest building-department records daily from the San Mateo County and South Bay cities listed on our permit tracker, and Millbrae is not currently among them. What we do publish that bears on a Millbrae project is the surrounding market: permits, sales, and teardown scoring for the cities we do cover, refreshed monthly in the developer report.
