Frequently Asked Questions


Is it worth buying a home with a pool?

In Florida, the demand for homes with pools is much higher than other parts of the country. A pool will increase the demand for your home with a large percentage of buyers.

How much value is added to a home with a pool?

This is tricky to answer. Historically, the national statistic indicates that home value increases about 7%-8%. However, in Florida, the demand and desirability for a pool from home buyers moving from other states is very high. Therefore, pools can bring more than 10% in our market.

How much does it cost to build a pool?

Pool prices have exploded in the past couple years. Many Florida homes have screened-in pool cages as well, which can add significantly to the cost of a pool. Pools are like automobiles, and there is a wide range depending on features, however a good starting point is about $60,000-$75,000 for an average Florida size pool and screened enclosure. We have seen pools exceed $150,000 as well.

Are baby gate screens which can be temporarily installed around a pool a county code requirement?

In Sarasota, a pool must offer child protection. Either a baby screen must be able to be temporarily installed when needed, or door alarms must be installed on any door which leads to the pool area. A homeowner does not need both, but should have at least one of the two protection measures.

What is a “salt pool”?

An electronic cell (electrolytic chlorine generator) can be installed on any pool. A pool owner will add salt to the pool occasionally. The electronic cell will convert salt into chlorine, which sanitizes the pool. A salt water pool is considered a healthier option for sanitizing your pool as compared to a traditional chlorine system. It is less harsh on your skin.
