Tax Season Savings

As tax season approaches, we wanted to remind you that you can access a copy of your 1098 mortgage interest statement by logging into your mortgage

servicer portal. Additionally, don't forget to share your property tax bill with your CPA, which you can obtain from the county website.

We have some exciting news to share with you! There are new tax credit and utility savings programs available for California homeowners, which were

passed a few months ago. We're eager to inform you about these programs, as they can help you save money on your electric bill.

 

There are three programs available for homeowners in California that don't have solar. You could qualify for:

 

1. CARE Utility Savings Program: This program offers a 15% reduction on your electric bill, without installing solar on

your home. It's offered by Edison, San Diego Gas & Electric & PG&E.

2. Free Solar Panel Program: you can get free solar panels installed, and then buy power at 30% to 50% off your current

rates. On average, our clients save $2,000/yr on their bill without purchasing anything!

3. Federal & State Tax Credits: If you want to purchase solar, the state/federal government will pay for 30% of your

solar system cost and finance 100% of the remaining balance.

To see if you qualify for any of these programs, all you need to do is send over a copy of your most recent utility bill.

We'll run it through the Federal Utility Savings Program and then call the utility company to determine what programs you

qualify for.

The best part? This service is 100% free for our past clients. In the last 90 days alone, we've helped over 291 of our past

clients save money on their electric bills.

If your electric company is Edison, San Diego Gas & Electric. LADWP or PG&E, which are the highest electric rate areas in the

country, your chances of qualifying are high (80%) as compared to other areas in the U.S at only 10%.

To take advantage of this opportunity, simply email us a copy of your most recent electric bill.

 

Plus, as a special thank you, we're offering a $100 Amazon gift card to anyone who sends over their bill - even if

you don't qualify or decide not to move forward.

Electric rates in California have increased by 130% over the last seven years and are expected to go up another 20% next year

on average. So, take advantage of this opportunity to save money while you can.

We look forward to hearing from you soon!
