Spotlight: Solar Panels on Homes

Solar panels are showing up on more homes than ever, and with that comes new questions for buyers, sellers, and agents alike.

Not all solar installations are the same. During an inspection, important details can easily be overlooked without a closer evaluation. Panel age, installation quality, roof penetration points, wiring methods, and overall system condition all matter. These factors can impact roof performance, future maintenance, safety, and long-term value.

A solar panel inspection helps provide clarity. It offers insight into how the system is installed, how it interfaces with the roof, and whether there are visible concerns that should be addressed before closing. It also helps set realistic expectations for buyers and protects sellers from surprises after the transaction.

As solar becomes more common in real estate transactions, understanding what’s installed on the roof is just as important as understanding what’s inside the home.

If solar panels are part of the picture, having them properly evaluated helps protect your clients and their investment.
