This is a sample review. Example Solar Exit Co. is a fictional company used to demonstrate how our company reviews are laid out. None of the details below describe a real business.
Companies that promise to get homeowners out of solar contracts have grown quickly. Some provide useful help. Others charge large upfront fees for work you could do yourself, or make promises no one can guarantee. Each of our reviews looks at the same points, so you can compare companies side by side.
What this company offers
Example Solar Exit Co. says it reviews your solar agreement, looks for sales or disclosure problems, and negotiates with the solar provider or lender on your behalf. It says it works with leases, PPAs, and loans in most states.
How much they charge
In this example, the company charges a $1,500 upfront retainer plus a percentage of any amount it saves you. Upfront fees are one of the most important things to check. In many states, companies offering debt or contract relief services face limits on collecting fees before they deliver results.
What they promise homeowners
- “We can cancel any solar contract.” No one can honestly promise this. Outcomes depend on your contract, your state, and how the sale was made.
- “Stop making your payments while we negotiate.” This can damage your credit and lead to collections or liens.
- “Results in 30 days.” Timelines vary widely and depend on the solar company’s response.
Red flags we look for
- Large fees collected before any work is done.
- Advice to stop paying without explaining the consequences.
- No clear written agreement describing what they will and will not do.
- Guaranteed outcomes, or claims to be a law firm when they are not.
How it compares to doing it yourself
Many first steps, like requesting your contract documents, checking the cancellation window, and filing complaints with state agencies, cost nothing. A paid service can still help in complicated cases, but it should explain clearly what it will do that you cannot do yourself.
