• Directly from the client (rare)
  • They are recurring clients and I have a good memory
  • On the credit report.  Many times when the solar is financed, it will show on the credit.  For example Mosaic Solar.  Huge red flag that property has solar
    • Many times the solar shows up as a mortgage.  If the lien isn’t attached to the property, we order a credit supplement to correct the type of liability to installment
  • From the title report.  The UCC/lien will show most of the times on Schedule B. It’s a hit and miss whether the title company actually points it out and therefore imperative that Operation staff review pre-lims.
  • From the appraisal report.  Does appraiser note if it’s outright owned, leased, or financed?
