Can I take my panels with me?
If you decide to buy a new home, you may be wondering, can I take my solar panels with me? In short, you cannot remove your home’s solar panels and put them on a new home unless it is fully paid off. This is because the solar loan is attached to the home address and not the homeowners social security number.
This is often not explained during the sale process and homeowners are frequently surprised when they go to sell their home. Sometimes a buyer is not interested in purchasing the solar system with the home. This can cause the homeowner to lose the sale because they cannot afford to pay off the system and the detach & reset services needed to take it with them.
At BuiltMX, our experienced business and sales professionals are here to help you make sense of the regulations and variables surrounding solar. We will provide candid advice about your system’s expected costs and savings, so you can rest assured that it is a worthwhile investment for your home.
