Doing more to invest in renewable energy are the major reasons why households make the switch to solar. Moreover, finding the right residential solar financing option can seem intimidating. Howeverm, we here at Del Sol Energy make it simple. For many families across the US, the upfront investment required to install solar panels will be paid back by the money saved from lower monthly energy bills. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Residential Solar Financing: Which Option is Best for Who?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>No matter how quick the payback, the investment required to get started with solar is still large, so let\u2019s illuminate some of the financing options available:&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Cash<\/strong>&nbsp;<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>If you can save the amount needed and pay for your solar installation with cash is ideal. That\u2019s one of the best way to see the fastest payback and not have to worry about accruing interest. That wouldn&#8217;t be the case with a loan. However, if nyou\u2019re looking to switch to solar as soon as possible and don\u2019t want to wait a number of months or years to save the money yourself. If cash isn\u2019t the right route for you, there are plenty of other options.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>HELOC or Mortgage Refinance<\/strong>&nbsp;<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>If you\u2019re looking to make improvements to the home you own, think of this. A Home Equity Line of Credit (HELOC) or refinancing your mortgage are great options. A HELOC allows you access to a line of credit, similar to that of a credit card. Moreover, with lower interest rates so you can borrow against that line of credit to finance your solar installation. If HELOC isn\u2019t an option, you can always refinance your mortgage. Definitely take this into consideration that added home value created by making the switch to solar. Your monthly mortgage payment will absorb the cost of the installation with this method. In fact, today, solar-specific mortgages are becoming more common amongst mortgage lenders.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>PACE\/HERO Loans<\/strong>&nbsp;<strong>for Residential Solar Financing<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>These types of loans are only available in places like California. These states have addressed how to incorporate these loans into their property tax ecosystem. If you are in a state with PACE or HERO loans available, these affordable options will account for the cost of your solar panels in your property tax payments. However, loans in this category will place a tax lien on your home, making the selling process complicated if you choose to leave before your solar panels are paid off.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Unsecured Solar Loans<\/strong>&nbsp;<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The process to obtain an unsecured solar loan from a lending office is very straightforward and simple. Usually it&#8217;s based on your credit score. Moreover, you won\u2019t have to put up any large assets as collateral for unsecured loans. Due to the nature of the loans, the interest rates will likely be much higher than the other options, costing you more in the long run.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>PPA\/Lease<\/strong>&nbsp;<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>A Power Purchase Agreement (PPA), or a lease agreement, is similar to leasing a car. You\u2019ll pay monthly fees to lease the solar panels, but you\u2019ll never own them outright. Another downfall to this option is that it renders you ineligible for the attractive tax credits that often incentivize the switch to solar in the first place.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Del Sol Can Help<\/strong> <strong>find the <\/strong>Right<strong> Residential Solar Financing<\/strong> <strong>Option<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>If you\u2019re not sure where to start when it comes to installing solar in your home, reach out to our team at <a href=\"https:\/\/delsolenergy.com\/contact-us\/\">Del Sol Energy<\/a> today.
