Financing Options That Fit Your Budget

There’s more than one way to go solar. Whether you want to pay cash, finance through a lender, or lease with no money down, we’ll help you find the right fit.

Ways to Pay

Four Ways to Go Solar

Every homeowner’s situation is different. Here are the financing paths we offer, each with its own advantages.

Cash Purchase

Pay upfront, own your system outright, and keep every dollar of savings and incentives. No monthly payments, no interest, and the fastest return on investment.

Solar Loan

Finance your system with a low-interest loan through one of our lending partners. You own the system, build equity, and still save on energy from month one.

Solar Lease / PPA

A third-party provider owns and maintains the system on your roof. You pay a fixed monthly rate or per-kilowatt-hour price that’s typically lower than your current electric bill.

Prepaid Lease / Prepaid PPA

Pay a one-time upfront amount that’s typically less than the full purchase price. You lock in your energy costs with little to no monthly payment after that.

Common Questions

If you don’t see your question here, just ask us during your consultation. We’re happy to walk through the details.

What's the difference between a loan and a lease?

With a loan, you own the system and keep all incentives and equity. With a lease or PPA, a third party owns the system and you pay them a monthly rate for the energy it produces. Loans offer more overall value, while leases are simpler to start.

Eligibility depends on credit profile, property type, and system scope. We review this during consultation and give you clear answers upfront.

Many lease and PPA agreements include a buyout option. The terms vary by provider, and we can help you understand what your options look like before you sign.

Each lending partner has their own requirements. We work with multiple lenders specifically so more homeowners can find a fit. We’ll walk through your options during consultation.

No. We use transparent, standardized pricing. Every homeowner gets the same rate for the same system. No guesswork, no wondering if you could have gotten a better deal.

We calculate it based on your specific home during your consultation. You’ll see your actual system size, applied amount, financed balance, and projected monthly payment before making any decision.
