All About Solar > Solar Financing

Solar Panels Plus is proud to now offer solar financing for its network of dealers across North America.

This financing program eliminates cash as a barrier to using solar energy to produce power, hot water, or to reduce monthly energy costs.

Our easy-to-use loan program offers competitive pricing, fast approvals, and an easy, simple process to allow you to take advantage of solar energy today.

Whether you have considered financing for your solar energy system or not, everyone interested in solar energy is looking for options on how to do so as economically as possible.

Solar financing makes solar power more attractive than ever before. Imagine installing a solar energy system that saves over $100 a month in energy bills - and your loan payments are only $50 a month!

You would see an immediate, permanent savings - while increasing the value of your home, generating your own power, and profiting from an energy source that helps save our environment.

Why Choose SPP's Solar Financing?

 This program is designed specifically for homeowners who are interested in adopting solar power or solar hot water for their home. As such, this financing program has been designed to make it easy, fast, and as simple a process as possible.

Many homeowners assume they need equity in their property to qualify for any home improvement loan. In many cases, this can be the case. However, this program is designed for people with or without home equity.

Through this program, HUD insures the loan for eligible borrowers. There is no equity requirement, no appraisal is necessary. This allows the underwriters to provide financing faster than most lenders.

Because the loan is not specifically tied to the solar project, the homeowner can receive financing within just two short weeks of application approval. There is no design review or project approval by the bank. You receive funding quickly - allowing you to enjoy the permanent benefits of solar energy quicker.
