WIN
Inspection Report Walk-Through Call
Planned · TBD
Tiffany is coordinating a call with Mike Palmer at WIN Home Inspection for the three of you to walk through the report together — caulking findings, wet space questions, and the mold question. Time to be confirmed before April 3.
Solar Panel Concerns — In Progress

Tiffany has sent a formal letter to the listing agent and Western Title requesting resolution on all solar items before due diligence closes April 3. Here is a summary of what is being worked through.

Ownership
  • Both systems appear to be prepaid electricity agreements — seller paid for power produced, not the equipment
  • Sunrun likely still owns both systems physically
  • Sunlight Solar only has record of the 2011 system — no record of a 2016 agreement
  • Confirmation needed: has the seller purchased either system outright? If yes, documentation required
Transfer to Buyers
  • If not purchased outright, formal transfer through Sunrun requires written approval and a signed assignment
  • Has that process been started? If not, next steps needed
  • If Sunrun will not approve transfer, seller must address buyout before or at closing
Roof Replacement & Panel Removal
Priority
  • Roof needs replacement — panels must come off first
  • Per agreements and Sunlight Solar: if Sunrun owns the systems, only Sunrun or a Sunrun-approved contractor can remove them
  • Who coordinates removal? What does it cost? Who pays?
  • Buyers are not in a position to take on that cost — this must be resolved before closing
Maintenance & Servicing
  • Both systems need to be inspected and serviced as part of this transaction
  • If Sunrun owns the equipment, only Sunrun or approved contractors can service it
  • Service records and maintenance history requested
  • Process for requesting inspection — and what happens if repair is needed after closing — must be clarified
Title & UCC Filings (Western Title)
  • Western Title has been asked to confirm whether Sunrun has UCC-1 financing statements filed on either system
  • Title to advise on how those will be handled at closing
