Vision Solar Customers in Orlando: What the Record Shows and What You Can Do (2026)

July 27, 2026 · 6 min read

Part of the complete guide: Failed Solar in Florida: The Complete Homeowner's Guide →

Vision Solar shut down in late 2023 and filed Chapter 7 while under enforcement by three state attorneys general. Here is what the record shows — and which records exist for your own install.

If you found this page by searching for a Vision Solar lawyer or attorney in Orlando, start with what the public record shows. We are not a law firm. What we do is pull the records: the permit and inspection history, the installer's license on your install date, and the documents you signed, in one file, yours to keep.

This page covers two things: what the public record shows about Vision Solar as of 2026, and what an Orlando-area homeowner's own record consists of — the specific files that already exist in Orange, Osceola, and Seminole counties, at the state license board, and at your utility.

Frequently asked questions

Do I need a lawyer to file a DBPR complaint?

No. The Florida Department of Business and Professional Regulation (DBPR) accepts complaints directly from consumers, with no attorney required to file one. Whether to involve an attorney is each person's own choice; what a given set of records means for a contract or a loan is something only an attorney licensed in Florida can tell you.

Is Vision Solar still in business?

No. The business closed in late 2023, with a Chapter 7 filing that came while enforcement actions by the attorneys general of Florida, Arizona and Connecticut were live; the Arizona case was brought together with the FTC and the Department of Justice. Connecticut holds a $5 million stipulated judgment from 2024 that the bankrupt estate likely cannot pay.

Which records exist for an Orlando-area install?

For an Orlando-area install, the records file consists of the contract, the loan paperwork, the county building department permit file, the state license verification for the install date, and the utility interconnection or PTO record from OUC or Duke Energy. That is the file our $99 Complete Report assembles, yours to keep.

Who financed Vision Solar installs in Florida?

Florida reporting named Dividend Solar Finance — a Fifth Third Bank company — among the lenders on these installs. Fifteen complaints naming Dividend specifically reached the Florida Attorney General, and Fifth Third has acknowledged a 17-state coalition of attorneys general looking at how Dividend lends and how it works with installers (CBS12, February 2024). Your own loan paperwork names your lender — that document is part of your record.
