[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We passed on our dream house in Oakton because it had a pool. It was just something we didn't want to deal with, mostly safey issues, cost of installing a proper gated fence, upkeep...kids our 2, 3 and 5...so maybe in a different phase of life...we started running numbers of cost to fill it with concrete and make a patio and finally realized we needed to walk away....[/quote] I wouldn't buy a house with a pool either and have heard from a realtor friend that pools reduce the property value in this area. It's one thing if you're living somewhere like FL, where you can use the pool most of the year. Up here, you only get about 3 month's use and you have the maintence and liability issues to deal with year round. Not worth it IMO. [/quote]
