Jon Boyd, an exclusive buyer's broker, signed a contract for the installation of a power generating solar roof with Select Solar And Generator, a Michigan solar panel installer. When complete, the installation will have the ability to supply virtually all the electric power needed for Boyd's West Ann Arbor ranch home."With the tax credits, the upfront payment from the DTE's SolarCurrents program, and the tremendous pricing from Select Solar, this looks like it will be an outstanding investment," said Boyd, a nationally recognized home buying expert. "People have been installing solar for environmental and political reasons for many years, but in Michigan now it can make sense strictly as an investment. We plan on staying in our home for a while and there are not many other places where we can find a relatively safe 16% return."The design, install, and commissioning will be done by Select Solar And Generator, a company with offices in six states and Canada, who specializes in solar-electric system design and installation and emergency standby generators."This seems like a perfect match," said Mike Cooley, Michigan solar installer for Select Solar And Generator. "Boyd is passionate about helping home buyers and that, combined with his knowledge of home financing, construction, and the value of the utility and tax credits, and it is no wonder he is enthusiastic.""Being on the buying end of the real estate business we've gotten fairly selective about the companies we do business with," said Boyd, Manager of an Ann Arbor real estate buyer's brokerage and past president of the National Association of Exclusive Buyer Agents. "The quote from Select Solar was very competitive, but in addition, I felt quite comfortable with their knowledge of the technology and their local install team."The Home Buyer's Agent of Ann Arbor is Southeastern Michigan's largest buyer's real estate company and the oldest Exclusive Buyer's Agency in the state of Michigan. It has helped thousands of home buyers save millions of dollars on their home purchases. Since Exclusive Buyer Agent companies only represent home buyers and never sellers, these companies avoid the conflicts of interest of traditional real estate companies and offer home buyers 100% loyalty.
