If it were my property, unless I wanted to do it for philanthropic reasons, I would look at the cost of the solar roof vs. traditional roof, the benefits, and the payback before I proceeded. 

I know of one on Long Island that I use on the regular for my traditional buyer and seller listings, who is also skilled in double closings.

Do I go to a traditional bank and get it refinanced?

Hi Daniel,I think what I have been seeing for the most part is that duplexes up to four plexes are not necessarily marketed at certain cap rates but whatever the market and comparable properties have been selling for.Maybe a factor that contributes to this is that anyone with a traditional home mortgage can purchase up to a 4 unit building without getting a commercial loan.

Like a traditional refinance into a 30 year at a lower rate?  

@Christian Sifuentes  - If the state requires a registered agent, you are out of luck.

Please any advice would help $50k can get you $200k worth of real estate using traditional financing.

@Christian Sifuentes True but I don’t think I’ll get enough to invest and my house really needs the Reno badly.

As with any (traditional) IRA, the tax is paid when the distribution is made later.
