Michael, general manager of Cozy Home in Flexstaff, told listeners that a mix of state, city and federal incentives could substantially reduce or eliminate out‑of‑pocket costs for many customers.
He said an $8,000 state rebate is available, there are city rebates (which he said begin July 1), rebates that apply if customers are in Sedona and a federal tax credit. He said the federal tax credit is likely to end in 2025 depending on pending federal legislation and described the July 1–Dec. 31 period as “probably the best time we’ll ever have with incentives.”
“There's the $8,000 rebate from the state,” Michael said. He added that lower‑income customers can sometimes have “100% of the cost” covered by the combined incentives, while “for the average income, it's probably gonna cover 60 to 70% of the cost.”
Michael framed the timing as important for customers considering the measures he described. He noted overlapping programs at multiple levels of government but did not identify specific program names, implementing agencies or application steps during his remarks.
