At Home Pro Roofing and Solar, we understand the importance of flexible financing options for roofing, solar installations, solar backup systems, and more. One popular option we offer is PACE Financing—a program designed to help homeowners upgrade their properties with energy-efficient improvements while keeping upfront costs manageable.
PACE stands for Property Assessed Clean Energy. This unique financing method allows homeowners to make energy-saving upgrades, such as solar power systems, energy-efficient roofing, solar backup installations, attic insulation, and even drought-tolerant landscaping. The cost is repaid through the property tax bill as a special line item.
PACE has roots in Northern California, specifically Berkeley, where it began as a solution for homeowners to fund underground utility projects. The concept expanded in 2008 when then-Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger signed legislation making PACE financing available for energy-efficient upgrades. Today, Residential PACE Financing is offered in California, Missouri, and Florida, with Commercial PACE active in over 35 states.
PACE benefits cities, contractors, and homeowners alike. For cities like those we serve in Sunnyvale, Mountain View, Los Altos, Saratoga, Palo Alto, Santa Clara, Redwood City, and San Mateo, it helps meet energy reduction mandates. Contractors gain more opportunities to complete projects, and homeowners can access flexible financing to improve their homes with upgrades like roof replacement, solar installations, or solar panel removal and reinstallation during roofing projects.
PACE Financing differs from traditional loans in that it is:
PACE loans appear as a separate line item on your property tax bill. Payments align with your property tax schedule, whether you pay annually, semi-annually, or through an impound account. Projects completed after June may not require a payment until November of the following year, offering a grace period of up to 18 months.
PACE financing can cover projects like:
PACE loans offer flexible terms of 5–30 years, depending on the lifespan of the project (e.g., solar and roofing can qualify for 30 years). There are origination fees and fixed competitive interest rates.
