We will file a UCC Fixture Filing on the solar and related equipment. This will show up on a property title search, but it is not a deed of trust. These loans are not a second mortgage and are not secured by the home.
You can apply your tax credits and other incentives to the loan to reduce your loan principal and re-amortize to reduce your monthly payments.
APR = annual percentage rate. APR is effective as of 11/1/2025 and reflects the current minimum APR offered. The following example is for estimation purposes only: a $20,000 loan at 6.00% APR would result in 120 monthly payments of $222.06. Actual loan payment amount will be disclosed at loan closing and may differ slightly. Other rates and terms available based on individual credit standing and term. Other terms are available.
Designed to finance larger solar purchases, the unsecured 20-Year Solar Loan has discounted fixed rates and an extended term. You’ll benefit from an investment that reduces your home’s operating expenses and provides consistent monthly loan payments.
