Counter-intuitive: Pool Removal Increases Property Value
It’s counter-intuitive, but pools don’t add to the value of a property. He logic behind this seems to be that they use up a lot of space and reduce the options, if there’s flat land someone can install a pool, or whatever else they want, but if there’s a pool it has to be a pool barring major work. This means that if you’re looking to sell your house you can actually increase the property value and the speed at which it sells by removing your pool. In certain areas like Annapolis, MD this has caused a growth in pool removal services.
Pool removal is functionally a portion of demolition; it’s grown up largely to assist people trying to sell houses with pools on them. It’s essentially a byproduct of the demand for flexible housing options. People don’t often want to buy houses that are really only good for one style of home ownership. The other issue is that people with young children can be hesitant to buy pools. If there’s water in it then there’s a drowning hazard, whereas if it’s empty, then there’s a couple foot drop onto hard concrete, and for some reason parents can be nervous about that.
If you have children and don’t enjoy swimming it might even be something you want to consider for a pool you own but don’t intend on selling. There are some reasons to destroy a pool, obviously a great many people enjoy them, but for some it’s too dangerous, too much insurance liability, and too much work for something they just don’t use. Removing an in-ground pool is a complex process as compared to an above ground pool. Both require some no-how and an idea of what you’re doing and are hard for individual home-owners to do on their own.
Even in a more temperate area like Annapolis, MD the amount of time that a pool can be used per year is limited making the hassle have less pay off. The reason why pools require some no-how to deal with is the forces involved. They’re designed to hold a massive amount of water, made strong and with mechanical bits, if you haven’t filled the pool it still may have collected rain water. So you have to deal with the water, sometimes chemical filled sometimes bacteria filled, either way potentially a lot of it and you don’t want to just drain it onto your lawn. You then need to know the proper way to break the various parts of it down, and how to transport and dispose of everything correctly. All that is assuming you have the easier to remove above ground pool.. Basically if you’re looking to sell the house, or think the pool is too much of a risk or waste of time for you, there are real benefits to removing it. If you do want to remove your pool, you want to make sure you get professional assistance to help you deal with the issue instead of attempting any DIY project.
