Avoid Solar Surprises Before You Tour

If a home already has solar, QuiqNest runs a CARFAX-style solar check before you tour or make an offer.

We verify:

UCC-1 lien
  • Whether the system is owned, financed, or leased
  • Whether a is attached to the home
  • How solar affects financing, resale, and refinancing
  • Whether the system aligns with lender and appraisal requirements

This protects buyers, agents, and lenders from inherited solar debt, title risk, and closing delays.

Most solar problems are discovered too late. QuiqNest finds them first.

Only Owned Solar Increases Home Value

Only fully owned, lien-free solar can increase a home’s value.

Leased or liened solar does not.

Appraisal and lending guidance treat solar as real property only when it is owned outright and free of UCC-1 liens.

Ownership means:

  • No UCC-1 lien
  • No third-party approvals
  • No payoff required at sale or refinance

If solar isn’t owned cleanly, it isn’t treated as equity.

Before You Sign a Solar Lease, Protect Your Refinance

Many refinance problems begin with solar leases. These agreements often lock borrowers in for years so a third party can claim the solar tax credit, which may limit future refinancing options. Before signing any solar contract, talk to us first. QuiqRefi™ helps homeowners avoid leases and, when appropriate, roll owned solar into the mortgage instead.

HOMEBUYERS FAQ

Common questions

Is solar included in my mortgage with QuiqNest?

Yes. BrightNest Mortgage integrates solar directly into your primary mortgage during the home purchase or refinance process. This creates a Clear-Title Solar™ home with no UCC-1 liens, no separate solar loan, and no dealer markups. Solar becomes part of the home, not a separate financial obligation.

Will solar panels increase my home's value?

Homes with fully owned, lien-free solar systems consistently outperform comparable non-solar homes at resale. The key factor is ownership. Clear-Title Solar ensures the system is owned outright and attached to the property, helping preserve value and avoid refinancing or closing complications.

How is this different from a solar loan or lease?

Traditional solar loans and leases often include UCC-1 liens, dealer fees, and separate monthly payments. QuiqNest eliminates those issues by rolling solar into the mortgage itself. You get one payment, clear title, and full ownership from day one.

Is the interest tax-deductible?

Yes. Because solar is integrated into your mortgage, the interest is treated as mortgage interest, not solar loan interest. This can make it tax-deductible, unlike most standalone solar loans. Always consult a tax professional for personal guidance.

Will solar affect my ability to refinance or sell later?

No. Clear-Title Solar is specifically designed to protect refinancing and resale. There are no UCC-1 liens, no third-party ownership, and no payoff surprises. The system stays with the home as a permanent improvement.

Who is QuiqNest really built for?

QuiqNest is built for buyers and homeowners who care about equity, ownership, and long-term financial clarity. We’re not in the solar business. We’re in the home equity business. Solar is simply the tool.

Realtors use QuiqNest to protect closings and pre-qualify solar safely before offers are made.
