[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I sold my house above ground pool. I went and got a quote of $500 to have it removed in writing. I told first buyer who did not want it I have the quote and at closing will hand you a check for $500 made out to pool company to remove it.

He bailed on something else. Second buyer really wanted pool as he had a two year old and four year old and being above ground and with safety ladder can’t fall in. So sold it as selling point.

My current house has an “above ground pool” in. I say it cost $20,000. It is semi inground meaning  sunk four feet deep, had beautiful stone work around pool and a trex deck with steps and is salt water.

It adds zero to my property taxes. I maintain it myself super easy. If new owned does not want it I guess we don’t want them.

If we did remove it I would fill in dirt use pavers and put fire pit or gazebo in middle. Or maybe Jaquezzi by steps I have.

I am not selling so not worried resale.

And I think first buyer old house was bluffing. I found out later he wanted cash directly and I know my pump and  ladder equipment he could sell for $1,000 bucks. I think he was looking to use pool and pocket $500. I figured it out when we mentioned I would take equipment with me. [/quote]

Did the 20K include decking and stone?[/quote]
