Will Solar Increase My Home's Value?

Solar is a Long-Term Investment

Installing solar panels lowers your energy bills and locks in long-term savings. This future cost avoidance is a valuable asset that buyers notice.

Homes With Solar Sell Faster—and for More

• On average, homes with solar sell for around 4.1% more on average.

• A report from the Lawrence Berkeley National Lab found solar homes sold for $15,000 more than comparable non-solar homes.

• Buyers are increasingly looking for energy-efficient, low-maintenance homes, and solar fits the bill.

No Maintenance = No Headaches

Solar panels require very little upkeep, which is attractive to buyers. A warranty-backed system (like those offered by CHNG Energy) is even better—it gives potential buyers peace of mind.

Eco-Conscious Buyers Pay Attention

Millennial and Gen Z buyers (a growing share of the market) place a high value on sustainability. A solar-powered home speaks directly to that mindset.

Tip: If you're planning to sell in the next few years, be sure your solar system is owned, not leased—it increases your home value more significantly.
