Add additional NOI to your business — from the roofs you already own.
NOI funds the energy system, installs it, meters it, bills residents, and pays you monthly — all on one contract. Zero capex, zero special assessment, zero operating headache.
We fund the system. You add a revenue line without touching your balance sheet.
Roll out across a portfolio and multiple states under a single agreement.
Metering, tenant billing, collections, service and reporting — handled.
Every roof, canopy, and clubhouse is a revenue asset.
Rooftops, carports, and amenity buildings across garden-style multifamily, build-to-rent, and HOA communities. Same playbook every time: we fund it, build it, meter it, bill it, and wire you the margin.
Representative project profiles. Actual revenue varies by utility tariff, roof area, resident participation, and system design.
Billing software won't buy your panels. Installers won't bill your residents.
The market is split in two: software vendors that meter and invoice — after you've already spent the capital — and installers that build the array and hand you the operating problem. NOI is the only stack that owns the whole chain, from the check that funds the roof to the deposit that hits your account.
| Capability | NOI | Solar billing software | Solar installer / EPC |
|---|---|---|---|
| Pays for the system | We do — $0 capex, $0 assessment | No — you fund it | No — you finance or lease |
| Builds and warranties the install | Vetted EPC network, managed by us | Out of scope | Yes |
| Meters and bills residents | Built-in billing rail | Yes — if you bring the array | Rarely, or via a third party |
| Collects and chases payment | ACH + card, dunning, retries | You or your PM team | Not offered |
| Pays the owner | Monthly payout to your bank | You reconcile it | N/A |
| Who you call when it breaks | One partner — us | Support ticket | Installer, then the utility |
No stitching together a lender, an EPC, a billing vendor, and a support desk. One agreement covers capital through payout.
We model the revenue the roof can produce and finance against it — so the program clears without touching your balance sheet.
Enrollment holds because the savings are visible on the statement. Participation is what protects the revenue line.

We'll model your specific roof using a recent utility bill.
We navigate the ITC, tenant billing, and net-metering complexity — so your energy investments turn into profitable NOI.
You keep the asset and the agreement. We add the meter and the billing rail underneath it.
Solar income lands next to rent — one invoice to the tenant, one payout to you, every month.
When local power prices rise, your revenue per unit rises with them. The roof keeps appreciating.
From utility bill to revenue estimate, in under a minute.

A 24-unit building can add ~$17.7K in annual NOI. With no capex.
Tenants pay less than they did to the utility. You collect the margin. NOI takes a small share for running the rail.

The five things owners ask first.
Short answers on cost, timeline, legality and what happens if you sell.
What does NOI actually cost me upfront?+
Nothing. NOI funds, installs, meters and bills the rooftop system. Our installer partners offer PPA-style financing, so you pay no capex and revenue begins on day one. A portion of tenant payments services the financing over 10–15 years; afterwards you own the system outright.
How much additional NOI can a building produce?+
It depends on roof area, local utility rates and unit count. Use the calculator on this page for a first estimate, then send us the property and we come back with a free, no-obligation revenue estimate based on your actual roof and tariff.
How fast from signup to first income?+
Typical timeline is 45–60 days: intake call, site assessment, permitting and interconnect, install, tenant onboarding, first billing cycle. If your roof already has solar producing today, we can begin tenant billing in under a week.
Is tenant solar billing legal in my state?+
Yes — in the states we operate today. Tenant billing for onsite solar is legal and well-established; what differs is the regulatory framework. NOI handles compliance against each state's utility resale and submetering rules on a per-property basis. If we can't operate compliantly in your jurisdiction, we'll tell you up front.
What happens to the agreement if I sell the building?+
The NOI agreement transfers cleanly to the new owner. In practice, the additional five-figure revenue line tends to lift the building's appraised value at typical multifamily cap rates — and gives you a story to tell during diligence.
