Don't have to own your own home. Landlords can place solar panels on their rental homes and/or apartment buildings. Is that good for them or not? Only they know.

Credit? I don't know. most of the people I know have one or two vehicles that look as though they may have paid $15,000 to $20,000 for. I'd rather pay five thousand for the car and ten thousand for the solar.

The roof I agree with along with not all homes have a clear enough view of the sky to get usable sun throughout the day.
