Lease or buy?
Here is the break down.
If you have no money you can get a solar system for free.
Then, if you sell your house in less then 10 years you will pay twice for your energy. The person buying your house has to take over the lease and can only take over the lease if they have perfect credit.
If you buy a solar system. I becomes a adder for your home and is typically worth twice what you paid for it when you sell your house.
How do we know that? We have had two of our clients sell their home and they MADE MONEY! They were very happy!
If you live in your house till you die then, a lease deal might work out, but all of the companies that are leasing are still losing money... so who knows what will happen if they go under and the banks own the solar system.
May the leaser beware!

China
So why are we in a trade war with China over green energy?
Lets read between the lines.
The IRS will give you a 30% tax credit on any solar electric system we install. That costs the US economy an average of $10,000 on home systems.
If the Solar Contractor is installing solar panels made in China then the US Government is supporting the Chinese economy.
At Solar Forward we install Sunpower solar panels. Sunpower is an American Company.
We are doing our best to install the best products for the best price and do the right thing all at the same time.

Sherman Oaks Fest
We had a great time today meeting people and hanging out on an overcast day. There was considerable interest in Solar and we thank all those that stopped by to look over our Solar Roller and sign up for a free solar evaluation. Thank you!
We saw Danny Kennedy co founder of Sungevity at the Schuco October fest party after the Solar Convention in Los Angeles.
He crashed the party, said hello to no one and walked directly up to the desert table. Without using a fork or a plate Danny used his dirty hands to pluck a piece of cake off the table and insert directly into his mouth. He then left the party without saying hello to the hosts or anyone.
This is the the business model for Sungevity. Jump in and steal the cake with dirty hands and leave ASAP.
Good luck!
