Our solar solutions vary by community, so be sure to talk to community sales associates or contact our Homebuyer Resource Center to find out what&#8217;s available in your region.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Helping clients go green\u2014and save some green!<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>If you\u2019re based in California, you and your clients are likely well-versed in the benefits of solar home technology. But agents and buyers outside the Golden State may be less familiar with the many perks of powering homes with the sun. Below are some quick facts to help you out when you\u2019re selling a solar-ready home. Be sure to share them with your clients!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Solar energy is affordable and reliable.&nbsp;<\/strong>According to the&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.energy.gov\/solar\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">U.S. Department of Energy<\/a>, \u201csolar energy is the fastest growing and most affordable source of new electricity in America.\u201d By installing a solar power system, clients may avoid rate hikes during times of peak electricity use and enjoy reliable back-up power if the grid goes down.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Solar energy is clean and renewable.<\/strong>&nbsp;Unlike fossil fuels (e.g., coal, natural gas), solar energy doesn\u2019t release greenhouse gas emissions (e.g., carbon dioxide) or potentially hazardous pollutants into the water and air. And the environmental and health benefits may be significant. According to the&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.energy.gov\/eere\/solar\/downloads\/environmental-and-public-health-benefits-achieving-high-penetration-solar\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">U.S. Office of Energy Efficiency &amp; Renewable Energy<\/a>, solar energy has the potential to prevent $167 billion in health and environmental damages and between 25,000 and 59,000 premature deaths by decreasing air pollution.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Solar energy can raise home values.&nbsp;<\/strong>How much of a difference solar technology can make will depend on the system\u2019s size and specifications\u2014as well as market factors like climate\u2014but according to&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.zillow.com\/research\/solar-panels-house-sell-more-23798\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Zillow\u00ae<\/a>, solar panels increase a home\u2019s value by an average of 4.1% across the U.S. This is an important consideration when it comes to resale\u2014and yet another reason why your clients should consider this \u201cbright\u201d idea!<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Solar energy may mean tax exemptions.&nbsp;<\/strong>Depending on where your clients reside, they may be eligible for financial incentives, including local and state tax exemptions and a federal tax credit, if their home has a solar power system.&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.ecowatch.com\/solar-tax-exemptions-2655222561.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Learn more<\/a>&nbsp;about potential savings.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>We hope this information helps you with selling a solar-ready home.
