Lease or Buy? Weighing Your Solar Panel Options
Original: Should You Lease or Buy Solar Panels?
Consumer Reports is examining whether homeowners should lease or buy solar panels, a decision that affects upfront costs, long-term savings, and home value. Buying typically offers greater lifetime savings through tax credits and ownership, while leasing lowers the entry barrier with little or no money down. As energy prices stay high, many households are revisiting how to finance rooftop solar.
Why now: Rising energy costs and interest in home solar are driving homeowners to compare financing options.
