Permit Expediters in Pinecrest, FL
The Village of Pinecrest Building and Planning Department has fully transitioned to digital plan submissions through its eTRAKiT portal. Permitting hours are 8:00 AM to 2:00 PM, Monday through Friday. Construction is not permitted on Sundays or state holidays. Permits are valid for six months, and inspections must be approved every six months thereafter. Projects valued over $2,500 require a recorded Notice of Commencement posted at the job site before construction begins. Florida Department of Health approval is required for septic tank projects, and DERM and Miami-Dade Water and Sewer approval is required for projects involving sewers and water. Every application must include the property's folio number in the format 20-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX, and flood zone designation must be identified on every permit application.
At Concord Crest Real Estate, we manage your complete Pinecrest building permit application through the eTRAKiT portal, coordinate all Miami-Dade County agency approvals, and track every review cycle until your permit is issued.

How It Works
- Free consultation: We review your project scope, identify the correct permit type and checklist from the village's All Permits library, and confirm which outside agency approvals — DERM, MDWASD, DOH, or Miami-Dade Fire — apply to your project.
- Document collection: We gather all documents per the permit-specific checklist, include the folio number in the correct format, identify the flood zone designation, and prepare the Notice of Commencement for projects over $2,500.
- eTRAKiT submission: We submit your complete Pinecrest building permit application through the eTRAKiT portal during the 8:00 AM to 2:00 PM permitting window, with all digital plans uploaded correctly.
- Agency coordination: We coordinate DERM, MDWASD, DOH, and Miami-Dade Fire approvals concurrently with the village review so all required clearances are ready when the permit is approved.
- Follow-up: We track every review cycle, respond to correction comments, and manage the six-month permit validity to ensure inspections are approved before expiry.
- Delivery: Once your permit is issued, we coordinate inspection scheduling within allowed construction hours and keep your project on track to Certificate of Occupancy.
