A bigger system is not automatically a better one. Under NEM 3.0 an array sized to fill your roof rather than to match your usage sells its surplus at a fraction of what it is worth to you. If a proposal is much larger than your consumption, ask why.
Worth asking whoever quotes it:
Expect it to take: Typically 2–4 months from signing to switch-on, most of it permitting and utility interconnection rather than installation, which is usually 1–3 days on the roof.
These figures come from aerial imagery, county records and this parcel's measured geometry. They cannot see inside the house, so they do not know the condition of your wiring, plumbing or insulation, whether previous work was permitted, how a contractor would get equipment to your yard, or what you would choose in materials and finish. Any of those can move a real bid substantially in either direction. Treat this as a well-informed starting point for budgeting, and let a site visit settle the number — that part is free.

Each has its own plan, and the numbers differ — roof size, lot, age and condition all vary house to house, which is the whole reason we measure them individually rather than quoting a street average.
