NSW Residential Sales contracts to now include solar panels
Residential Sales Contracts in Sydney will shortly include solar panels as inclusions in the default case. This means that if you plan to take your solar panels with you, a conversation needs to be had with your property advisor or solicitor to ensure any potential vendors cannot form the opinion that these are inclusions. This may mean taking down the panels before photographs are taken for advertising purposes, and specifying this in documentation about the house.
In practice, most people would leave the panels in place and use the lower running costs as a selling tool.
