As a property owner applying for PACE financing, you will agree to a levy of a ‘’contractual assessment’’ on your property. You will receive funds to pay the up-front costs of installing the approved improvements. The PACE assessment will appear as a new line item on your property tax bill.
There are no penalties for paying all or a portion of the PACE assessment early. Please see Question 18 below for additional information.
As part of the property record, the assessment will be disclosed at the time of property sale, and the remaining unpaid balance of the financed amount may be transferred to the new property owner. For more information, see the info sheet “PACE Assessments and Transferability” from Renew Financial.
In certain cases you may want to have a qualified auditor evaluate your home to determine the most cost-effective measures to reduce the home’s energy use, but it is not required. The costs of an energy audit can be financed with PACE financing.
