Increase your Hawaii Home Value with Solar Power!

This month I will be adding a new service for my real estate clients - Solar Power!

Hawaii is in one of the Earth's best locations for generating solar power, and the State of Hawaii offers the nation's best tax credits! Just for adding a solar water heater, the State will give you 35% tax credits for a total of about $2500, and until the end of 2008, there is also a Federal tax credit of 30% that maxes out at $2000.

These are tax credits remember, not just write offs. It's cash back to you as long as you have enough tax obligations to wipe out!

Solar water heaters can save a family over $100/month, and with the total cost of a new 80 gallon water heater around $7000, the math makes total sense. After the $4500 in tax credits, you also can get $1000 rebate from Hawaiian Electric, so your out of pocket cost is only $1500!

So anybody that doesn't have solar water in Hawaii better call me and get it done! If you don't have the $7k to pay up front, then I have another great option for you!

Through the new Solar Power division of Aloha Tony Properties, Inc., I can get your solar power setup for free and you pay just $37 month, with no setup fees, no up front cost! For $37/month I'll give you unlimited solar water heating, as much as the sun will provide you through my 80 gallon tank, that I WILL PAY FOR!


Now for those who are very ambitious - you can get photovoltaic power, actual electricity from the sun, not just hot water, for about $17k. The tax credits still apply, only the Hawaii state will give you up to $5000 in credits.
