Before making a decision to buy rooftop solar for your house, make sure you understand everything about the solar buying process. Ask questions and do your own research. Shop around and get quotes from other companies. Are the price, product and service comparable. Ask the same questions of all the companies that you call and make notes so you can make an informed decision. After all, this decision is almost as big as your decision to buy your house. Questions to ask: Will I be completely off the grid? Will I have electricity if the power goes out? Will my electric bill go down? How much does the system cost? Is solar for me? What is your cancellation policy? Companies to call before making your decision: Your Homeowners Association, Property Management Company, Your Tax Preparer, Your Insurance Company, Your Tax Collectors Office if your financing is through a PACE lender. If your roof is new, call your roofing company and ask about the warranty. It may be voided when the panels are installed. Please watch the video for details.
