There are millions of residential solar systems in the United States and growth is happening all over the country, including states not typically considered sunshine states. As the real estate market sees more homes with solar installations, home buyers and sellers will look to real estate agents who can guide them through the complexities and language this technology entails. When real estate agents understand the value of a solar system:
  • Sellers have the best opportunity to attain the full value of their investment
  • Buyers will feel confident that they paid fair market value for their new home
AFTER THIS CLASS, REAL ESTATE AGENTS WILL BE ABLE TO:
  • Discuss the benefits of residential solar
  • Describe the key components of a residential solar system
  • Cite the available solar financing options and explain their impact on the real estate transaction
  • Accurately list solar homes in the MLS
  • Identify the concepts and tools that can help establish a list price for a home with a residential solar system
This class provides the tools real estate agents need to properly communicate the value of solar energy systems in the residential real estate market. Real estate agents that complete the class will be able to differentiate themselves by serving as the source of information on solar.

Pamela has a background in sustainability and educating the real estate community. She brings these interests together in the classroom to create an encouraging, dynamic, and content-rich learning experience. Pamela believes strongly that agents that can become trusted advisors on the topics of energy efficiency and solar and use this knowledge to increase their business and stay at the center of the transaction. As more homebuyers think about things like indoor air quality, total cost of ownership, and living more lightly on the planet, this becomes a crucial skill for agents.
