You Found The Right Place

If you are buying or selling a home with solar — and something about the situation feels more complicated than you expected — you are not overreacting. Solar agreements are more complex than most real estate professionals are trained to handle. And the consequences of getting it wrong show up at the closing table, in the title search, and in the net proceeds you were counting on.

I am Christina Mathieson Segura — REALTOR®, Mortgage Loan Officer, LEED Green Associate, and the author of The Solar SOS: What Homeowners Need to Know Before They Buy, Sell, or Sign and Solar Agreements in Real Estate, the companion volume written for real estate professionals. I specialize in real estate transactions where solar is part of the picture — on the buy side, the sell side, and every complicated moment in between.

If solar is part of your real estate transaction, I want to hear from you.

Who This Page Is For

You are thinking about selling your home and it has solar. You want to understand what your agreement means for your timeline, your net proceeds, and what a buyer is about to discover before it becomes a problem nobody planned for.

You are buying a home that has solar. You found a house you love and now there is a stack of solar paperwork that nobody has fully explained. You want to know what you are agreeing to — and what it means for your mortgage, your closing, and your life in that house — before you sign.

You are an agent with a solar transaction you have never seen before. You have been in real estate for years and you know what you know. This one is different. You want to bring in someone who has handled exactly this kind of transaction before and knows what to do with it.

This page is for all three of you.

What I Can Do

I work with buyers and sellers when solar is part of a real estate transaction. The ownership structure. The financing. The transfer requirements. The documentation. The appraisal. The title issues. The timeline that has to account for all of it.

I review solar agreements in the context of a real estate transaction and translate what they mean in plain language. I coordinate with title companies, lenders, and solar companies early so that nothing surfaces at the closing table that wasn't already being managed. I make sure the documentation exists to support the system's value for sellers, and that buyers understand exactly what they are agreeing to before they close.

I work with buyers and sellers directly in the New York area, and I connect clients in other markets with agents who have the preparation this kind of transaction requires.

What I Cannot Do

I want to be honest with you before you write to me.

I am a real estate specialist. My role is the transaction — buying and selling solar-powered homes. I am not a solar contract dispute service, and I cannot get you out of a solar agreement.

If you are dealing with a solar financing dispute that is not connected to a real estate transaction, the resources that can actually help are a real estate attorney licensed in your state and your state attorney general's consumer protection office. Both are free or low-cost to contact, and both carry real authority. I am happy to point you in the right direction when we talk — but I want you to know upfront what I am here for, so you can find the right help for your specific situation as quickly as possible.

Get In Touch

If you are buying or selling a solar-powered home, send me a message and tell me what you are working with. You do not need to have it figured out. You just need to start.

I read every message personally. I will respond.
