Florida led the country in Q1 2026 residential installs. Nationally, the market is still shrinking.
Florida is not a market riding a national solar boom. It is a market that outperformed a national contraction. Florida posted the country's leading residential solar installed capacity in Q1 2026, its strongest quarter since Q4 2024, at the same time the US residential segment overall is forecast to contract 18 to 21% for the full year on the loss of the federal Section 25D tax credit, which expired for any system installed on or after January 1, 2026. That gap between Florida's Q1 result and the national trajectory is real, and it is also the exception, not evidence the 2026 slowdown skipped Florida. What the slowdown did not skip is cost. Wood Mackenzie projects national customer acquisition cost will spike 40% to $0.84 per watt in 2026, after a five-year low of $0.60 per watt in 2025 that let installers coast on inbound demand while marketing spend was cut. That cushion is gone everywhere in 2026, Florida included, and it lands hardest on the segment that concentrates most heavily in this state: 1099 dealer networks. Sunder Energy, the dealer-network sales organization SunPower acquired in September 2025, drew more than 75% of its pre-acquisition sales volume from just three states, California, Florida, and Texas, which makes Florida one of the three markets where the appointment-buying dealer economy is most exposed to a rising CAC and the average 22% embedded loan dealer fee that funds a dealer network's entire commission stack. Financing structure is shifting under Florida deals at the same time. With the 25D credit gone, the only route left to a 30%-equivalent credit is Section 48E, claimed by the system owner under lease or PPA structures, which is why third-party-ownership is projected to reach 65% of reps' books nationally in 2026, up from 44% in 2025, with the share of reps selling zero TPO dropping from 9% to 1%. A Florida homeowner who books a consultation today is more likely than ever to end up in a lease or PPA deal rather than a cash or loan purchase, which is exactly why a pay-per-sit appointment, priced the same regardless of how the deal eventually gets financed, holds up better than a lead vendor optimized purely for loan-qualified buyers.

VA Horizon books exclusive, double-confirmed solar consultations for Florida installers and dealers at a flat, published rate: $300 one-time setup, then $249 per booked appointment. There is no quote-after-a-sales-call pricing and no volume minimum. Every appointment is qualified against criteria you set (homeowner status, bill size, roof condition, service area, ownership versus lease appetite) by trained Egyptian VAs with neutral-accent English, then confirmed twice before it lands on your calendar. Because Florida is one of the three states where the 1099 dealer economy concentrates most, appointment pricing that stays fixed regardless of financing outcome (cash, loan, or lease) matters more here than in a market where cash purchases still dominate. A dealer protecting a redline under a rising CAC does not need more leads to sort through, they need fewer appointments that are actually going to sit and hear a pitch. If a homeowner no-shows, the appointment is replaced free and never billed. Billing is receipts-backed and weekly, and every appointment traces back to a documented, double-confirmed booking. A human dials, qualifies, and confirms every appointment. Automation supports the system, it does not run the calls.
