How to Sell a Home in San Jose With a Solar Lease

  • 11/12/25

Solar panels are popular in San Jose—but if yours are leased, you’ll need a plan. I’m Dennis Loewen with North and Main Homes, and here’s how to sell confidently with solar.

 

Step 1: Confirm Ownership

Call your solar company to see if the system is leased or owned. Get the transfer paperwork early.

 

Step 2: Be Transparent

Highlight benefits like energy savings, but disclose that the buyer will assume the lease. Clear communication builds trust.

 

Step 3: Coordinate With Lenders

Send the lease documents to escrow and the buyer’s lender right away to prevent delays.

 

Owned systems are even easier to sell—just provide proof of ownership.
