Selling Your Home in 2016? Add Value with a Pool Renovation

Are you planning to put your home on the market this year? To get the best sale price for your home in a competitive market, the details matter. While the pool is not usually the most important feature home buyers will consider, it may be a deciding factor when it comes down to two similar homes. Here are a few reasons renovating your pool before putting it on the market may be a smart move. 

  • First impressions. Home buyers are looking at many homes in their search. You want your home to stand out from the crowd. A newly renovated pool could help secure a great first impression and make sure your home ends up on their short list.
  • Play on their emotions. Home buyers are more likely to buy a home they can picture enjoying in the future. A beautiful pool brings to mind gatherings with friends and family that play on their positive emotions.
  • Reduce future maintenance costs. When looking for a new home, buyers are not just considering the price of the home but also what will need to be fixed in the future. Many people are willing to pay a little more for a home that doesn’t improvements. An old pool could be a deal breaker.

The good news is that you don’t need a complete overhaul to make your pool look great. A resurfacing can do wonders for making your pool look like new without costing a fortune. It is a worthwhile investment to make sure your home is ready to compete on the market in 2016.
