Solar Contract & Financing Defense™
Separate the energy decision from the financing decision so you can compare cash price, dealer fees, incentives, loan terms, sales claims, and property obligations before signing.
1 of 4
See the solar proposal as two connected deals: the project and the financing.
Separate equipment and installation value from the funding structure so payment size does not obscure price, fees, incentives, or long-term obligations.
Find the project’s real cash baseline.
Identify the cash price and isolate dealer fees or financing markups before comparing monthly-payment offers.
Compare funding paths on total economics.
Evaluate loan, lease, PPA, and cash structures using term, rate, payment changes, incentives, and ownership consequences.
Read the property and contractor commitments.
Trace cancellation rights, warranties, transfer terms, lien or security interests, interconnection responsibilities, and service obligations.
A homeowner workflow from proposal anatomy to post-sign problem diagnosis.
Deal anatomy and funding baseline
Separate the solar project from its financing, identify the cash price, and compare funding structures on consistent inputs.
Claims, incentives, and contract obligations
Audit tax-credit assumptions, savings claims, production representations, contractor responsibilities, and property-related terms.
Decision and evidence workflow
Use pre-sign cooling-off controls, diagnose post-sign issues, build a complaint file when needed, and preserve the household decision record.
A low monthly payment is not proof of a good solar deal.
Tax eligibility, utility rules, interconnection, lending terms, contractor licensing, incentives, and cancellation rights vary. Verify current rules and professional advice where needed.
Separate. Compare. Verify. Decide.
Start with the cash-price baseline, compare funding paths on the same assumptions, verify incentives and contract obligations, then decide only after the project and financing both make sense.
