Selling a Solar Home
Solar is a valuable asset to your home
Residential solar systems are valuable assets that increase the value of your home. If you move, you can sell the solar system with your house. In fact, the system will likely appreciate in value as electricity prices increases. Your home’s solar system will continue to generate electricity for at least 25 years, regardless of who owns the home.
Solar homes sell faster
Solar homes have great resale value. The housing market overall remains slow, but according to the LA Times, buyers are seeking affordable, solar powered homes. Homes that have installed a residential solar system are beginning to outsell homes with traditional electrical systems because of the increased value, environmental benefits, and tremendous savings potential.
So, if you choose to move, you have two options:
- Sell the system with your house. The value of your home with the solar system is increased by twenty times the value of your annual utility bill savings– see Increase your property's value.
- Move your system to your new home. Contact Sungevity and we can help you move your system.
