CaliforniaFIRST PACE Financing

Learn How CaliforniaFIRST’s PACE Financing Increases Home Efficiency, Cuts Energy Costs & Offers Up To $250,000

CaliforniaFirst’s Property Assessed Clean Energy (PACE) financing program offers up to $250,000 for homeowners to put towards renewable energy and energy efficient home improvements, with no required credit check. This financing puts a minimal risk on the homeowner by attaching payments to the property tax rather than your mortgage.

What is CaliforniaFirst’s PACE financing program?

The PACE financing program was created with the goal of providing low-risk financing to homeowners who would like to improve their home’s efficiency while lowering bills and emissions. By attaching the costs of improvements to the home’s property taxes, PACE Financing ensures that the bill for any improvements goes to the current homeowner and usually does not follow you if you move. From solar panels to insulation, if it improves your home’s efficiency it is likely eligible for PACE Financing. For more information on the program and eligibility requirements please visit www.CaliforniaFIRST.org.
