POWER MOVES · OPINION

California has a new law allowing portable solar, and the open question is what it means for renters. My take: renters, read your lease and ask your landlord in writing. Don’t wait for someone to tell you what you are allowed to do. The power move: landlords, saying yes to tenant-paid upgrades that lower utility bills is how you keep good tenants. — Eric Lawrence Frazier, MBA, Your Trusted Advisor in Business and Wealth
