The TCX buyer advantage
We sit on your side of the table for the whole transaction — sourcing, pricing, diligence, and close.
Access to vetted supply
- We canvass the market — and our off-market seller relationships — to surface credits that match your size, timing, and risk appetite.
- Every opportunity is pre-screened for sponsor quality, credit type, and documentation readiness before it reaches your tax team.
Pricing and terms in your favor
- We benchmark pricing against live comparable transactions across ITC, 45X, PTC, 45Q, 45V, and 45Z.
- We negotiate indemnity, recapture, and insurance terms so the economics survive the fine print.
Institutional-grade diligence
- A consolidated diligence memo covering eligibility, basis, placed-in-service, and prevailing wage and apprenticeship compliance.
- Coordination with your tax counsel, insurer, and accounting team so nothing lands on your desk unresolved.
Risk management built in
- Tax credit insurance placement, seller guaranties, and escrow structures matched to your internal credit policy.
- Clear documentation of the §6418 transfer election and registration numbers for your filing file.
