However, for a larger solar panel system, a 5kW installation, the value of your home can go up in value up to $29,000.

As we continue to create more technological advances, more and more people are looking into buying a home with pre-existing panels. With this higher demand for panels, the prices of homes with panels naturally increases because of the high demand. Not only this, but when your home has panels, your home value may be increasing, but your future buyers are saving an equivalent amount on their electric bill that they are on extra money for the panels.
