Ok I never cared too much about this but everyone keeps saying I should look into it, so here I am.
So I bought a house with some solar panels. The neighbour says how she got in just before some deadline so she gets the full rebate / ongoing discount for like another 10 years. She said the previous owners of my house installed them too late and just missed out so their rebate isn't as good (but they still received benefits).
Then someone told me that because I purchased the house, I don't "inherit" the old owners rebate, I get nothing.
Ok again I have no idea what this even is and whether I should care, but can someone give me the gist of it? Do I stand to benefit in anyway? And I plan on renting this out in a few months...I assume even if I did get some benefits, they would all be transferred to the tenant?
