Outperforming Delinquency Metrics During One of Solar Lending's Most Challenging Periods

The residential solar lending market has experienced significant disruption over the past several years. Rising interest rates, regulatory uncertainty, changing tax incentives, and high-profile bankruptcies have created new challenges for originators, investors, and servicers alike. As portfolio performance has come under increasing pressure, consistent servicing execution has become an even more important differentiator.

This case study examines how Concord helped a leading residential solar lender maintain portfolio performance through an extended period of market volatility. Working as the client's sub-servicer since 2019, Concord implemented a proactive servicing strategy centered on data-driven collections, borrower communication, technology-enabled workflows, and specialized operational expertise. Rather than reacting to changing market conditions, the servicing approach evolved alongside shifts in borrower behavior, financing models, and regulatory developments.
