Homes with Solar Panels for Sale in Woods Cross, Utah
Woods Cross sits right on the I-15 corridor in south Davis County, about 15 minutes north of downtown Salt Lake City and a quick hop to the SLC airport. The city averages around 230 sunny days a year, and the long summer stretches from June through September put solar arrays in their sweet spot — exactly when air conditioning loads spike along the Wasatch Front. Rocky Mountain Power's net metering program (now under the Customer Generation rate schedule) still lets homeowners offset usage, and Utah's residential solar tax credit, while phasing down, has helped a meaningful share of homes here get panels installed over the past decade. Most solar homes you'll see on the Woods Cross MLS are tract-built properties from the 1990s and 2000s in neighborhoods near 1500 South, west of Redwood Road, and up against the Bountiful bench.
Buying a solar home in Woods Cross comes with a few specific things to sort out: whether the panels are owned outright, financed, or on a third-party lease (Sunrun and Vivint contracts are both common in Davis County), what the remaining production warranty looks like, and how the system is tied into the meter. Winter inversion days can cut output sharply, so most local arrays are sized to overproduce in summer and bank credits. Ask for 12 months of power bills before writing an offer — it's the cleanest way to see what the system actually delivers.

Common questions
About homes with solar panels in Woods Cross.
Are the solar panels usually owned or leased on Woods Cross listings? ▾
Both show up regularly. Homes from the 2015-2019 boom were often installed under Sunrun or Vivint lease/PPA agreements, while newer installs tend to be owned outright or on a solar loan. Owned systems generally add resale value; leased systems require the buyer to qualify and assume the contract at closing.
How much can solar realistically save on a Woods Cross power bill? ▾
A properly sized 7-10 kW system on a typical 2,200-3,000 sq ft home here usually offsets 70-100% of annual electric usage. Real savings depend on shading, roof pitch, and whether the home uses gas or electric heat — most Woods Cross homes run gas furnaces, which keeps winter electric loads lower and helps solar pencil out.
Does Rocky Mountain Power still credit solar production in Davis County? ▾
Yes, but new interconnections fall under the Customer Generation rate, which credits exported power at a lower rate than the older net metering tier. If a listing's system was interconnected before the schedule change, it may be grandfathered — worth confirming with the listing agent and pulling the original interconnection agreement.
Do solar panels affect the home appraisal? ▾
Owned systems typically appraise as a value-add in Davis County, though the bump varies by appraiser and comparable sales. Leased systems generally don't add appraised value because they're not part of the real property. Lenders will sometimes require the lease to be subordinated, which can slow closing if not handled early.
What should I ask the seller about the system before making an offer? ▾
Request the installer name, install date, system size in kW, inverter type, remaining production and equipment warranties, and 12 months of power bills. If it's leased, get the full contract, monthly payment, escalator, and buyout figure. Also confirm whether the roof underneath was replaced or inspected before install.
Are there many solar homes on the Woods Cross market at any given time? ▾
Inventory is modest — Woods Cross is a small city of roughly 11,000 people, so active solar listings usually number in the single digits. The list below updates directly from the MLS, so it reflects what's actually available right now rather than older cached results.
