I just got a DIY kit quote for solar and it's ~$18,000. That would mean a contractor installing is at least $25,000 if not more. That's a big chunk of change upfront.

Piggybacking to also recommend realistically assessing if you might move prior to that breakeven point. I don't know if solar panels have good ROI for house selling or not.
