Six months. Thirty-plus vendors. ~$65,000 of documented work. The bones were solid in 1988 · what changed is everything you touch, plus a few things the camera doesn't catch (the solar already paid off, the mountain view from the front, the Arizona room off the kitchen).
01Solar PV · paid off, transfers free + clear
The seller paid off the solar loan at our purchase. The system stays with the house, no lease, no monthly debt. In Tucson sun this is real money · usually $50 · $150 a month off the electric bill, every month, for the life of the panels.

Full tear-off, new asphalt, every penetration resealed. The 25-year material warranty transfers to the buyer. Pima County permit final on file. Solar was carefully removed and reinstalled by the same team.
