Sell shares for home solar ‘investment’

Financial independence

Torn between selling some ETFs to fund a solar and battery system for my house. Wondering what other people trying to achieve financial independence think of the idea? Thanks

I would probably only do that if there wouldn’t be much or any CGT to pay.

I did write an article on this topic a while ago if you’re interested: https://strongmoneyaustralia.com/are-solar-pa...

I wrote that before the battery subsidies came out, so you’ll have to then add in the expected savings of that yourself :) But in general, it definitely can make financial sense.

Solar easy. Just pay it off instead paying bills and before you know it you’ll be saving more than you’d realise lol
