No Credit Check. No Loan. No Lease.
This is a power purchase agreement, and the distinction matters more than almost anything else on this site. Nearly every solar company sells financed ownership — a loan or a lease that requires credit approval. Solnr doesn't.
What a power purchase agreement actually means
Solnr owns the solar system on your home and covers the full cost of installation. In exchange, you pay for the power the system produces, at a rate locked into your agreement and set below what you currently pay your utility. You're not buying equipment. You're buying power, at a better price than you're paying now.
What you pay
Nothing up front. No down payment, no equipment cost, no installation charge.
A locked-in rate for the power your system produces, set below your current utility rate. Typical savings run around thirty percent off your monthly bill from day one.
If your system isn't producing power, you don't pay. That's different from a loan, where you keep paying whether the system performs or not.
No credit check, ever
Conventional solar financing requires credit approval, and that single step eliminates a large share of manufactured home residents before a real conversation even starts. Solnr doesn't run a credit check at any point.
Why this matters more when you sell
Financed solar is one of the things that most often slows down or kills a home sale, since the buyer normally has to pass a credit check to take over the loan. With a Solnr agreement, it transfers to your buyer without a credit check.
Frequently asked questions
Is this a loan?
No. It is a power purchase agreement. Solnr owns the system, and you pay only for the power it produces.
Is this a lease?
No. A lease typically charges a fixed payment regardless of how much power the system produces. Here, you pay for actual power produced, and if the system isn't producing, you don't pay.
Do I need good credit?
No. There is no credit check anywhere in this process.
What do I pay up front?
Nothing. No down payment, no equipment cost, no installation charge.
How much do I actually save?
Typical savings run around thirty percent off the monthly bill from day one, though your exact number depends on your usage and your roof. We show you the real figures before you sign anything.
What if the system isn't producing power?
You don't pay. That's built into the agreement.
What happens if I sell my home?
The agreement transfers to the new owner without a credit check, and Solnr manages the paperwork and any park coordination the sale requires.
What happens at the end of the agreement?
You choose to buy the system for a small amount, renew, or have it removed with your roof restored at no cost.
