Solar Panels – A Cautionary Tale from the Central Texas Market
As a seasoned Central Texas realtor who's helped sell nearly 10 homes with solar panels, here’s the honest truth 
I’ve yet to see solar panels add actual value to the resale of a home in our area.
Between wind, hail, and insurance claims, solar can complicate roof replacements—you'll need a licensed contractor to safely remove and reinstall panels to preserve the warranty. That means more time 
, more cost 
, and more stress 
.
While solar might reduce your electric bill, it may not be financially wise unless you plan to stay in the home for decades.
Why? Because many buyers don’t want the added burden of taking on a solar loan or a lease they didn’t sign up for.
Thinking of going solar? Let’s talk strategy before you commit. Make decisions with resale in mind!Categories
