What makes solar homes different to sell
Each ownership structure has different implications for value, documentation, buyer qualification, and closing logistics.
Owned System
Maximum value add. Transfers to the buyer free and clear. Marketed as a permanent asset with full warranty and production documentation.
Financed (Solar Loan)
Typically paid off at closing from sale proceeds. The home can be marketed as effectively owned. We calculate payoff early so there are no surprises.
Leased System
Requires buyer credit approval and solar company coordination. We target buyers who are comfortable with leases and manage the full transfer process.
Power Purchase Agreement (PPA)
Buyer assumes the energy purchase agreement. We present the rate vs. savings clearly, target the right buyers, and handle the transfer coordination.
Battery Storage
Battery systems add meaningful value — backup power, rate arbitrage, and grid independence. We document and market this as a distinct selling advantage.
Warranties & Monitoring
Transferable warranties and monitoring history give buyers confidence. We compile this documentation early so it's ready for buyer review and appraisals.
