Is $60,839 to install 37 REC 450 BOB solar panels with Enphase IQ8X inverters a fair price?

Project Details

I'm in Massachusetts and looking for help reviewing solar quotes. My roof is getting older and will need to be replaced before I can get solar panels. I estimate my roof will need replacement in about 5-10 years, and I've received one quote for approximately $40,000 for the roof replacement. My biggest question is whether I should wait until the roof absolutely needs replacing before moving forward with solar. I've received two quotes from local installers and am considering getting a few more. The companies that provided these quotes seemed reputable. I suspect that the tax credit issue might be making companies busier until the end of the year.

Quote Details

This option includes the installation of 37 REC 450 BOB (Alpha Pure-Rx) solar panels with Enphase IQ8X inverters.
