Why this changes your offer

If nearly every home in a neighborhood has a pool, the pool is baked into the comparable sales. Paying a premium on top of that price is paying twice. The reverse is also true. In a neighborhood where almost nothing has one, a pool home is genuinely scarce and will hold a premium on resale.

Ask two questions on any pool home here. How old is the equipment, and is the cage original? A pump and heater replacement is a few thousand dollars. A screen enclosure after a storm season is considerably more, and on a barrier island cages take a beating.

What a pool costs to keep

Budget for chemicals and service, the electric to run the pump, and higher liability coverage on your homeowners policy. Ask your insurance agent about the fence and barrier requirements before closing, because Florida has specific safety rules for residential pools and an unpermitted change can hold up a policy.
