Reply to comment by deathbeforeupvote in Looking for company suggestions for putting solar panels on my home. by Chrome2279

She's right. I'm a real estate agent and the number of headaches I've either heard or been directly involved with regarding solar are pretty numerous and I have never ever ever met anyone who came out ahead on cost savings with solar. If someone is into solar as a green alternative for personal reasons I get it, but the numbers just don't add up for 99% of people out there.

It is also absofuckinglutely infuriating dealing with solar companies when trying to sell a home. If you don't have the spare cash to buy the panels outright, do not get solar panels.

I don't want to talk down solar, because I think it's great. But I have never been able to get the numbers to work without tax incentives even with me doing the install.

Mass Dominion solar makes much more sense.
