About HartWell Capital Group
A local broker built for Akron owners
HartWell Capital Group exists to help Akron business owners secure the right commercial financing without the runaround. We serve companies across the city's diverse economy, from polymer manufacturers and advanced materials firms to professional service providers and medical practices. Our mission is straightforward: connect local entrepreneurs with lenders who understand their industry, explain every option in plain language, and give honest guidance even when that means walking away from a deal that doesn't serve the client's long-term interests.
HartWell Capital Group works as your advocate, not a salesperson pushing one product. We compare offerings from more than 20 different lenders in a single conversation, explain the true cost of each option in plain language, and tell you honestly if financing isn't the smartest move right now. Our job is to give you the full picture so you can make the decision that's right for your Akron business.
A broker, not a lender, and why that helps you
We do not lend our own money and we are not tied to one bank. We compare programs across more than 20 lenders and are paid by the lender only when your loan funds, so our guidance adds no cost beyond the lender's disclosed terms. That independence is the point: we work for your best fit, not a single product.
