The owner OWNS the solar panels which lower the utility bills of this home incredibly and they even benefit from SREC's getting a sizeable amount of money back. The solar panels were purchased and installed in 2010. The purchase/installation price was $65,000 (total of 40 panels---OWNED). The panels generate an average of one (1) Solar Energy Renewable Certificate (SREC) per month (more in the summer months, less in the winter months) and they are currently selling for $227 each. The electric bill has been reduced by roughly 50% since the solar panels were installed (which is a significant savings particularly in the summer months). There are so many extras in this home including: inground irrigation system, two zone HVAC, Solar panels (OWNED), Two primary bedrooms, wraparound front porch, 34' x 10' deck in rear, wooded rear yard, lush landscaping.
