Buying a Home with a Pool?

Here are a few things to consider

It's not uncommon for homes in Central Florida to come with pools at nearly every price point. However, there are a few factors you'll want to keep in mind before diving into pool ownership. Here are just a few questions to ask yourself as you search for the perfect place.

What are the different types of pools?

There are a number of different types of pools to consider, so you'll want to take a close look at your budget and preferences before making a decision. Most pools can be divided into two categories: above-ground and in-ground. Above-ground pools tend to be safer, easier to maintain, and can be easily removed. In-ground pools look better aesthetically, but they require more time and money.

Pools can also be subdivided into a number of other categories based on their materials (fiberglass, concrete, etc.), the type of water (fresh or saltwater), and styles (lap pools, infinity pools, or spas).

What does pool maintenance entail?

In most cases, pools cost around $100 or more each month to maintain and can require an hour of work per week depending on the season. However, this number varies based on the type of pool and whether or not you use a professional service.

If you want to do the work yourself, you'll be responsible for cleaning the pool, ensuring you have the correct balance of chemicals, as well as maintaining the pump and filter. You may also want to perform pH testing or vacuum and drain your water periodically.  

Will this pool need any repairs?

Before you commit to buying a home with a pool, you'll want to make sure you know exactly what you're getting into. If a homeowner hasn't maintained their pool, you could be on the hook for some pretty extensive repairs.

Your home inspector should be able to diagnose any basic problems. However, some buyers choose to work with a pool inspection specialist if they have any concerns about a pool's condition.

Will this pool yield a good return on investment?

For many homeowners, owning a private pool can increase the value of a home by 10% or more. In-ground pools tend to hold their value better than their above-ground counterparts, and you'll see an even greater return if you invest in safety features or other add-ons. Above all, maintaining your pool is the easiest way to boost property values over time!
