Is $27,000 to install a 5.28 kW solar system with battery and full roof replacement a fair price?
Project Details
This is a follow-up to my earlier post about a solar installer proposing a 5-year ownership hold before transferring the system to me. I’m now trying to sanity-check the actual pricing they’re offering. I appreciate any input — especially from folks who’ve dealt with similar configurations.
