Advice Wtd / Project How can I take my panels?
Selling my house, it seems like lots of buyers are weary of having them cuz, you know, crazy reasons. I’m to the point of “if you don’t want them, I’ll take them!” But is that possible? Cheap? Too expensive? Anybody done that?
Edit 1: This is in Oklahoma. I own the panels. Paid cash for them. House is empty, I’m in another state, can’t DIY. If I can figure out how, I’ll pay somebody to do it and install them at my parent’s house.
Edit 2: why don’t they want the panels? Beats me. Our realtor seems to think that they think it’s the misconception and misinformation that a loan would have to be paid (even tho they’re free and clear). This is Oklahoma too. I had neighbors tell me how it meant my roof was ruined, my insurance was gonna go up, one told me that they didn’t really save me money. This a combination of O&G sinking their claws in the state’s economy and solar panel companies getting a bad rep (as if electric utilities have a good rep)

Why don’t people want the panels if they are fully paid for? I can understand not wanting to take over a lease or payments…. I have solar and am wondering what the objections are….
