I was in the same boat.

I'm in the bay area, did a roof mount system. ~9.5kW with Enphase microinverters.

I think it cost be ~15k all in. The usual installer price is normally around $2.5-$3/w (so about $25k - $30k).

I got someone to do the plans (because I was under the gun to get on NEM2), but that was $300 well spent.

Did it all myself -- mounting, running conduit / wiring etc. Wasn't too bad. Probably about 3-4 Saturdays of work.

Here's my install log: https://www.reddit.com/r/diySolar/comments/1c6jfjv/finally_d...
