A Capital Improvement
That Generates Returns.
Optimize your assets. Predictable operating costs. Differentiate your properties. Battery-backed solar, modeled at the individual property level for investors who make decisions based on numbers.
Assess Your PropertiesThe Investment Case
Solar as a Portfolio Strategy
For property investors, solar is a capital improvement with quantifiable returns — not a lifestyle decision. We model each property individually because blanket approaches waste money. Some buildings in your portfolio are excellent solar candidates. Others aren't. We'll tell you which is which, and show you why.
The calculation is straightforward: installation cost vs. decades of predictable operating costs, increased property value, and competitive differentiation in your rental market.
Financial Impact
Three Ways Solar Improves Your Portfolio
Predictable Operating Costs
Battery-backed solar locks in a portion of your energy costs at a fixed rate. Common-area power and tenant-facing loads draw from on-site production and storage. As utility prices climb year over year, your rate protection compounds.
Increase Property Value
Solar + battery installations are capitalized improvements that add directly to assessed property value. For income properties, predictable operating costs also support net operating income — which improves your cap rate.
Differentiate Your Rentals
Properties with battery-backed solar and backup power stand out in competitive rental markets. Tenants increasingly recognize the value of backup power during outages and predictable power costs — it's a practical amenity, not a marketing gimmick.
What You Should Know
Portfolio Considerations
We think through the complexity so you don't have to. Here are the factors we evaluate for every property.
Utility Structure Matters
How your properties are metered — individually, master-metered, or common-area only — fundamentally changes the solar math. We model the actual utility structure of each property, not assumptions.
Not Every Property Is a Candidate
Roof condition, orientation, shading, and structural capacity all determine viability. We'll assess your properties honestly and tell you which ones don't make sense — before you spend money on them.
Tenant Turnover & Management
We help you think through how solar integrates with your tenant structure: who benefits from production, how billing works during vacancies, and what (if anything) changes in your lease agreements.
Multi-Property Timelines
If multiple properties are viable, we can phase installations to align with your capital planning. Not everything needs to happen at once — we help you prioritize by ROI and logistical readiness.
Insurance & Liability
Solar installations are covered under standard commercial property insurance in most cases. We provide all documentation your insurer needs and walk you through any policy adjustments required.
The Process
How It Works for Investors
Property Assessment
Enter each property address in our quote tool for per-property ballpark estimates. No personal info required — just addresses and approximate numbers.
Inspection
Book professional site assessments at $200 per property. An engineer evaluates each building individually — roof, shading, electrical, structural. Fee credited toward installation.
Financial Modeling & Proposal
Per-property precise quotes with three product tiers each. Portfolio-level strategy and phased timelines for multi-property rollouts. Real numbers, not blanket estimates.
Phased Installation
Prioritized by ROI and property readiness. Permits, inspections, and coordination handled by us. If we're more than a month late, we cover your utility bill until we're done.
