Common Questions
FAQ
Are you a lender?
No. TradeBridge is not a lender, broker, or investment advisor. We do not originate loans, underwrite credit, or provide capital directly. We are an origination infrastructure partner that identifies and qualifies opportunities for our capital provider partners.
Do you broker deals?
We do not broker in the traditional sense. We do not negotiate terms, take commissions on closed deals, or act as intermediaries in transactions. We deliver structured, qualified opportunities — the lending relationship and all terms are handled directly between you and the business.
How do you source opportunities?
We use a combination of signal detection across specialty trade businesses, industry data patterns, and operational milestone tracking to identify capital-relevant moments. Each signal then goes through a structured internal validation process before being delivered.
What kind of businesses do you focus on?
We focus exclusively on specialty trade businesses: HVAC, roofing, plumbing, electrical, solar, and general/mechanical contractors. These are established businesses with predictable capital cycles and strong lender alignment.
How do partnerships work?
Partnerships begin with a fit assessment call. Once aligned, we deliver qualified opportunities that match your underwriting criteria, ticket size, and industry appetite. You decide which opportunities to pursue — we simply ensure the handoff is structured and contextualized.
What information is included in a handoff?
Each handoff includes the business profile, capital signal context, qualification stage, relevant timing data, and any verified operational markers. We provide what you need to make an informed first assessment — not raw lists.
Is this exclusive?
Partnership terms vary. We can structure arrangements based on your preferences — from shared pipeline access to vertical or geographic exclusivity for qualifying partners. This is discussed during the fit assessment.
What geographies do you cover?
Our current focus is on U.S.-based specialty trade businesses in key metropolitan and growth markets. We are expanding coverage based on partner demand and market density.
