You’re managing properties. You shouldn’t also be managing a vendor army.
A tenant calls about a broken AC. You dig through contacts, leave a voicemail, try your backup — they’re booked. Meanwhile you’re coordinating a turn clean, waiting on a painter, and chasing a pest-control invoice. Vendor scheduling and coordination is consistently ranked among property managers’ biggest pain points. You don’t need more vendors or more software — you need one relationship that covers everything.
Describe it once — the AI does the rest.
Tell the TradeWorks assistant the property, unit, and issue. It surfaces vetted, insured pros with upfront pricing and books the one you choose — 24/7, no phone tag.

Frequently asked questions
What does TradeWorks One cost?
Nothing. Zero platform fee, zero per-unit fee, zero per-job fee. You pay contractors directly for services — no markup from TradeWorks. The platform, booking system, portal, and team access are all free.
How is this free?
Contractors in our TradeWorks Select network pay a small monthly membership fee for access to confirmed work orders. That’s our revenue. You’re our client, not our revenue source — so our only incentive is keeping you happy with the contractors you book.
How do you compare to Property Meld or Lula?
Property Meld = software only, $1.60/unit/month, bring your own vendors. Lula = vendor network, 150+ unit minimum, per-job pricing. TradeWorks One = vendors + booking + portal, $0/month, no minimum unit count. We give you everything they give you separately — plus the contractors — for $0. (Competitor figures as of June 2026; pricing may change.)
Do I have to use TradeWorks for everything?
No. Keep your existing vendor relationships for categories where you’re happy. Use TradeWorks One where you need better coverage, faster response, or more reliability. Many PMs start with one or two categories and expand from there.
What about quality control?
Every contractor is TradeWorks Select certified — verified insurance, verified licensing, background checked, and SLA-bound. You rate every job through the portal. Low performers are removed from the network, not just warned — and you can choose a different vetted pro anytime.
