We publish counts by ZIP code and by contractor, not a list of permits by street address. The full record for one property, with every permit, its status and its inspections, is kept by the office that issued the permits; our source here is City of Medford building, electrical, mechanical and plumbing permits on single-family, duplex and cottage homes (the city's TRAKiT permit exports). Ask that permit office for a property's permit history, or search its public records by address.
For a contractor you are about to hire, open their page from the lists above to see every permit they pulled across Medford. Medford permit statistics → · How the records work in Medford →
Source: City of Medford building, electrical, mechanical and plumbing permits on single-family, duplex and cottage homes (the city's TRAKiT permit exports). The window is October 2023 through September 2026. Each permit is placed by its property's ZIP code (the address on the permit, or the parcel's when the permit has none).
Counted: permits on homes for the 7 kinds of work we track (HVAC & mechanical, electrical, new home, solar, irrigation backflow, plumbing, remodel & addition) where the record names a contractor. Not counted: commercial work, trades we don't read, and permits with no contractor (owner-pulled work). So this is not the city's count of every permit in 97504.
A ZIP code does not follow city or county lines; these count only permits in the City of Medford. Counts are permits, not jobs: one job can need several permits.
