I have leased solar panels on my Canton roof. Does that hurt my sale, and do I have to pay the lease off?

Leased solar panels do not automatically hurt a Canton sale, but they do require extra steps: the buyer typically needs to qualify to take over the lease, or you pay it off before or at closing. Some buyers walk away from a home with an unassumed solar lease because their lender or their own comfort level does not allow taking on that separate payment. Disclosing the lease terms early, rather than after an offer, avoids a late surprise that can cost you a buyer. Ask Joel to review your specific lease agreement before you list.
