It does but not very much. My Friends have a pool and I have a 1/2 acre larger lot and slightly smaller house and my appraises for more then their property with a pool
It doesn't 'lower' the property value. However, depending on the location, it may lower its appeal to many buyers. In Michigan, most people don't want the work of a pool for the extremely short swimming season. And often families with little kids and babies steer clear of buying property with such obvious hazards. And they will increase the insurance rates.
an inground pool increases the value anywhere in america.
no home equity
There is no set amount that a pool adds to property, it depends on several factors about your home. Contact a local realtor or appraisal for a good estimate.
Sure. If the value of your property is increased by the addition of an item like a garage, pool, etc. the value will be reflected in your property taxes. If your value goes up, then also your property taxes will go up as well.
No, it doesn't work that way. A pool certainly adds value, but there are no improvements that can be made to a home that are 100% added to the value of the home. I've heard that a kitchen remodel can add about 60% of the cost to the value. My guess is that you would be lucky to add 50% of the cost of the pool to the overall value of the property. Two other things to remember: Some people don't like pools and in their eyes it would decrease the value of the property. You don't want your property to go up by $50k, because your property taxes will go up as well!
This question cannot be answered without knowing the kind of pool, the associated structures i.e pool house, cabana etc., and the location of the property.
A hot tub will definitely add value to a home. Anything that is a pleasant extra addition, like a fireplace or pool, will increase the value of a home.
nope
Every pool will add value to your house. In ground are little better for sure but shapes doesn't really matter it all depend of what you like also my preference would be the banana shape
Yes, you should have no issue getting renters insurance with a pool on the property.
that depends on the size and quality of the pool and spa enquuire with a local real estate dealer for the best advice.
