I do let them know when it's revealed in a listing since I find that many buyers, while they might like the idea of potential savings, do not want to take on the seller's lease. And solar adds no value to the appraisal

Living in the "Sunshine State" it makes a lot of sense to consider solar. I am very pro-solar, however the cost is still so out there the payoff takes like a decade and I rarely (never) stay put that long.
If it is a client that bought their "forever" home the answer would be yes.

The dirty little secret about Photo Voltaic Cells in Florida is that when needed most, such as when a tropical storm takes down the power lines, the supply from the cells is also disabled, a protection mandated to be included in the solid state converters in the PV system installed at the house.
PV Cells are a great ecological statement to make to your neighbors, but practically speaking, they won't be there to keep the lights on when you really need them.

Good morning Raoul. There are some that have made the decision to put in solar, in early on most think it was a good idea.

It is a significant feature for homes sold here on Kauai. solar for water heating is standard here and full electrical supply through solar is considered a big plus.

Raoul - I sold one home with solar panels and it was actually more difficult to sell, even though the leased panels were all paid for.
The cost is very expensive to save maybe a few hundred a year, a thousand at the most. Unless one plans on living in the same home for over 20 years, the cost does not warrant the monthly savings.

They ask for them. The leased panels are not worth the investment for energy misers.

The cost does not warrant the savings in my area so I wouldn't have them nor do i mention them.

I have two homes right now with solar panels and buyers do like the savings.
