Welcome to the fun. It sounds like you are on the right track with renovating your home. When I purchased a house built in the early 1960s, the first order of business was major re-insulating. That made a bigger impact on my energy usage than anything else we have done. (And it's dramatically cheaper to deploy than most other options, too.)
There are some great FAQs and sticky posts here you'll want to read. You've got some high-level decisions to ponder, such as whether you want to grid-tie your panels or keep them isolated / off-grid for self-consumption only. That analysis will inform what kind of inverter you need -- tied, off-grid, or hybrid. Also think about your goals for energy storage. Do you want to be energy independent, able to go fully off-grid? (Here's a quick tip -- with an older home plus an electric car which you presumably would like to be able to charge at home, being grid-independent is a much larger challenge for you than for some.) If your goal is "energy backup" for a grid outage, that's likely much more attainable -- and you can do some "energy offset" when your battery bank is full and the sun is out.
Are you interested in building a DIY / homemade battery pack, or do you think you'll stay Tesla-loyal and just buy one of their pre-fab Powerwall devices? (A number of other manufacturers also offer varying degrees of plug-and-play battery banks, but the Tesla Powerwall is probably best known through marketing. Around here you will find that the term "powerwall" is used pretty generically for any stationary home energy storage solution, including a lot of our homemade solutions.) Either approach is viable -- it just comes down to personal preferences, budgets, free time, etc., etc. But again, that decision may cascade to impact some of your other choices, like which inverter is the best match for your intended system. If you choose to assemble your own battery bank, then you get to tackle which battery management system (BMS) to use, how / whether the BMS will interact with your inverter, and more -- that conversation alone is the subject of many pages of posts here.
Go forth and read, and then ask questions. There's a great group of people here, and many of them are very happy to share their knowledge and experiences with others. When you've had time to get a little more focused about your intended approach, start asking questions and I bet you get some solid responses.
Another quick tip -- you might want to update your profile to indicate your general location. That's often relevant for things like how much sun you are likely to get on your panels, shipping distances from various vendors, and so forth.
Cheers, John
