Considering using Sunrun for solar, and also debating the pro/con of leasing vs owning outright. Is owning always the best option? Would need to finance if I were to purchase outright. Anyone care to share positive/negative experiences with sunrun? Appreciate any and all input! Thanks!!

I'm not sure what the incentives are for this year, but owning seemed to make way more financial sense when we signed up last year. You get the tax incentives and any other benefits that would otherwise just go to sunrun. Also, negotiate hard. It helps if you have other quotes in hand, but sunrun came down thousands of dollars from their original quote and dropped the interest rates after talking a bit with them. Don't take what they first offer.
