What Makes a Clear-Title Solar Home™ Different?
A key advantage of all QuiqSolar properties is the Clear-Title Solar Home™ designation. Unlike typical solar homes that often have UCC-1 liens from third-party solar financing, Clear-Title Solar Home™ installations provide:
- No UCC-1 filings – The solar system is either fully paid off or integrated into the mortgage
- Streamlined sales process – No delays from solar lien payoffs or transfers
- Clear title reports – No complications during title searches
- Simplified financing – No additional lien holders to coordinate with
- Higher property values – Clear ownership increases buyer confidence and property appraisal
This Clear-Title advantage is available with both QuiqSolar Homes™ and QuiqSolar Homes Plus™, eliminating one of the biggest headaches in selling solar-equipped properties.
