Every question you wanted to ask about solar panels but didn't want to spend time with the sales person at your door!

I had serious doubts that these were as good as the door to door sales people said they were. I had also heard terrible stories in other states that they weren't transferable in the sale of a home. Then I met Mike Dalton of Mad Energy NW.

We address common misconceptions like: solar panels don't work well here in the Tacoma area; they require a lot of maintenance; they're too expensive; people won't save enough money.

We also explore how to find a reputable company, when to put them on and some of their favorite projects.

This may be the most helpful episode yet!

Hear directly from my clients in their own words how a change in their home opened up EVERY dream they had been yearning for. Nic and Audrey share how their home in the city continued to raise concerns and security issues for their family. When their mind was made up that it was time to move it went incredibly fast! Even though it wasn't the smoothest ride, they weathered the issues, got creative, had the right team in place and even purchased another home from a friend at the exact same time. It was a wild ride!

Nic and Audrey's amazing lender: Rosemary Godwin: [email protected]

What is the best return on investment for your home? Sometimes our updates get beyond our neighborhood and we have the nicest, most updated home on the block! That's great for living in but it does have some pros and cons when it comes time to sell. Colby and I chat about the investments we have seen ADD to a home's value and those that decrease a home's value at the time of sale. This doesn't mean it wasn't worth it for you, but if you're thinking of selling soon let's talk about how that plays out.
