Solar exit financing is a customer payment plan that lets homeowners cover the cost of leaving a solar contract over time instead of paying it all at once. It funds contract buyouts, cancellation and legal fees, and panel removal or roof restoration. Solar exit companies offer it to their clients at the point of sale through Solar Exit Financing and get paid upfront once the loan is funded, while the homeowner repays a third-party lender in monthly installments.
Solar Exit Financing is built for companies that help homeowners cancel, buy out, or exit problematic residential solar contracts, and for the homeowners who need an affordable way to pay for that help. Solar exit companies enroll to offer financing, and their homeowner clients apply for a monthly payment plan to cover the cost of the exit.
Homeowners can finance most costs involved in leaving a solar agreement: contract and lease or PPA buyouts, lien payoffs, legal and cancellation retainers, contract audits, and panel removal with any related roof restoration. Financing through Solar Exit Financing ranges from about $1,000 up to $50,000, so both smaller cancellation costs and larger buyout projects can be spread into monthly payments.
Solar exit financing is available across most credit tiers, including prime, near-prime, and lower credit scores, because one application is matched with a network of participating lenders rather than a single one. Checking available options uses a soft credit pull that does not affect the homeowner's credit score, and a full credit check only happens if they choose to move forward with an offer.
Enroll with Solar Exit Financing and get your business set up to offer payment options to its clients. When a homeowner is ready to move forward, the company shares a secure application link, the homeowner reviews offers from participating lenders based on eligibility, and once the loan is funded the company gets paid upfront and can begin the solar exit work.
With solar exit financing, the company gets paid after the homeowner's loan is funded rather than collecting installments itself. Funds are sent by direct ACH deposit, typically within 2-3 business days of funding. Because most loans in the network are non-recourse, the business receives its full service fee and is not responsible for how the homeowner repays the lender.
No. Solar Exit Financing partners with third-party lenders that are non-recourse, which means once the loan is funded and the business is paid, it is not responsible for the homeowner's repayment, late payments, or default. The third-party lender handles all servicing and collections, so the solar exit company can stay focused on its services.
The cost to get out of a solar contract varies by the type of agreement and how you exit it. Lease and PPA buyouts commonly run from about $5,000 to $40,000 or more depending on the remaining balance, cancellation and legal help often costs $2,500 to $15,000, and panel removal with roof restoration adds a separate amount. Solar exit financing lets homeowners spread these costs into monthly payments instead of paying a large sum upfront, with financing available up to $50,000.
