Is "green-washing" a thing in real estate?
I spent $40k on a high-end heat pump and solar array last year. My agent says it won't actually change my comps, but it makes the house more marketable. Am I just out that $40k, or is there a specific way to find buyers who actually pay a premium for zero-utility-bill homes?

How do I get out of a solar panel lease to sell my house?
I have a 20-year solar lease with 15 years left. I’m worried buyers will be scared off by the monthly payment or the credit check to transfer it. What are my options? Do I have to buy it out just to close the sale?

Natural or native yards?
I have a native yard that looks great. My HOA said it's fine. Do I have to put it back to grass before I sell my house?

Are solar panels worth the investment?
Are solar panels worthwhile? I live in Illinois where it's cloudy often in the winter. I'm also worried about putting holes in my roof. But I wonder if the cost savings is worth it? Also, does it add any value to my home?
