About Sun Equity™
We help homeowners turn their energy upgrades into visible, certified value — so they can sell faster and for more.
Why We Exist
If you’ve installed solar panels or battery storage, you’ve made a smart, forward-thinking investment.
But when it’s time to sell, that value isn’t automatically reflected in the sale price.
Buyers can overlook it. Appraisals don’t always reflect it.
Without a standardized method to document and support its value at sale, solar is often discounted or ignored entirely.
Sun Equity ensures your solar investment is fully recognized when you sell.
What We Do
Sun Equity provides independent third-party solar documentation and valuation support built specifically for real estate transactions.
We organize and standardize the information buyers, appraisers, agents, and lenders need to properly recognize solar value at sale.
With Sun Equity, you receive:
A structured solar value analysis report based on recognized income and cost methodologies.
Appraiser support materials aligned with accepted valuation practices.
MLS listing guidance to help agents accurately describe solar features.
Completion of the Appraisal Institute’s Residential Green and Energy Efficient Addendum.
Standard turnaround time: approximately 3 business days.
Why It Matters
Your solar upgrades have real value — but only if buyers and appraisers can clearly recognize it.
Sun Equity makes that value visible, credible, and defensible.

- Support appraisal recognition
Solar should not be discounted at sale.
What Drives Us
Too many homeowners invest in solar — and see little or no recognition for it at sale.
Solar generates real, measurable savings year after year. Without standardized documentation, however, that value is not fully recognized.
We built Sun Equity to bring standardization, clarity, and accountability to solar in real estate transactions.
Who It's For
- Homeowners selling or refinancing homes with solar or battery systems.
- Real estate agents listing homes with energy upgrades.
- Appraisers and lenders seeking standardized solar documentation.
