To solar or not to solar? That is the question. Right now, there is a huge push for solar energy and solar products in the marketplace. It is a great option for most homeowners, but what about those who don't see themselves living in their solar powered home for long?
The problem with homes that are solar powered, but not paid off in full, is that somebody is going to have to continue making those payments. How are you going to get a buyer to commit to paying an extra $30,000 or $40,000 and assume the payments?
What it comes down to is this: If you are going to be living in your home long-term, more than 10 years, it absolutely makes sense to invest in solar energy. On the flip side, if you don't plan on staying in your home for very long, just remember that when it's time to sell, it can create a little bit of a sticking point for the buyers if they don't want to take on the payments.
From an economic standpoint, investing in solar energy long-term is a smart move. But if you don't think you will be there very long, think about how you will pay for it and how you will sell your home with solar energy.
