Solar panels can slash your energy bills, but if you’re buying a house with a solar lease, there’s more to consider than just the savings. In California, where solar is required on most new homes, realtors are urging buyers to dig into the lease details—especially if the company isn’t a big name. The lease could affect your mortgage approval, so always let your loan officer know early. Some buyers find out too late that the extra monthly payment pushes them over their budget. Have you bought a home with solar? Was it a smooth process or did you hit any snags? #RealEstate #SolarPanels #HomeBuying
