Solar Advantages: Why Buying Fresno Solar Increases Property Values

Unsure about today’s solar advantages? You’ve probably experienced the nightmare of selling homes that are equipped with solar panels that are leased. You may have gone so far as to suggest removing the panels and throwing them away to get the property to move on the market.

The problem:

Bad leases and PPAs are impossible to transfer to the buyer. What buyer wants to be saddled with monthly payments and high-interest rates that wipe out any savings they receive on their utility bills? And what buyer wants to be forced to pay off the balance owed in advance, some 10 years of payments?

Leases are cold and frozen. The solar company that owns the lease sets the terms, and this can kill the deal for the sale. Leased solar energy systems mean that you need to do your homework, checking with the solar companies first, before attempting to close a deal in escrow.

The solution:

Homeowners that own, and do not lease their solar energy systems, increase the equity in their home AND can sell their homes at a higher price!

Their systems should stay intact. Here’s why:

As long as the homeowner owns the solar energy system, and is not leasing it, they can sell the system with the house and realize a profit. They can quickly move their house on the market. And the new buyers can reap all the benefits of solar heating, solar pool heating, and solar water heating with huge savings on their utility bills.
