    Would you say that if I built my own house and wired at least half of it myself, it would be fairly easy to do?

    Depends on what it is you're wiring. Keep in mind that at least some portions of the grid-tied system, your power company will require a certified installer.

    I'm figuring/hoping I could do all the stuff to my panel and hire someone to do the stuff at the meter. Or maybe the power Cord would do that here idk.
