buyers imagine it to be.
Having a pool can be a major selling feature for the right buyer. But buyers looking for a pool don’t want to see your pool and immediately think, “This is going to be a lot of work.” Before you sell your home, you should consider the following: • Is your pool clean? • If it’s an above-ground pool, are the parts rusting and liner showing signs of wear and tear? • If it’s an in-ground pool, are the cement, tile and grout spotless? • Are there any broken parts or leaks? • Does it have broken tiles or cracked cement? • Is it fenced in? You may run into zoning code issues if you don’t have a proper fence installed. • Is it low on water? If buyers don’t notice these issues themselves, a home inspector will be sure to point them out. You’re better off handling any potential issues before you put your home for sale, rather than scrambling to fix them later on. Pool maintenance can be stressful — and costly — if you don’t know what you’re doing. This is one job you’re better off leaving to a professional. For all of your pool maintenance needs, I recommend Cantu Pools. They’ll turn your pool into the dream space every buyer wants to see.
