How much value does a pool add to your home?
COVID has created pool mania in the U.S., but does adding a pool add value to your property? The short answer is yes, and here’s why.
Since COVID came on the scene, the value an in-ground pool adds to a home has increased by 69%. Pre-COVID, a pool added just over $16,000 in value on average. Today, that number has jumped up to $27,000.
Nationally, the average price to install a pool is around $60,000. In our area, it’s not unusual for a pool installation to be well north of six figures. In our market, we know that a pool will sell a house for more money and also make for a faster sale. Should you install a pool for the sole purpose of selling? No. We only recommend that you install the pool if you will spend time enjoying it.
