Is a “Pool Home” More Desirable in the Tampa Real Estate Market?
Tampa summers are HOT and HUMID and enjoying a refreshing drink, while relaxing by the pool, in your backyard, is a great way to cool off after a long, hot day! I always counsel buyers to choose a “pool home” over a “non-pool home”, for resale value!
Recent sales in the Tampa Real Estate Market show the “value” of a “pool” increases with the value of the home. You can see the percentage of homes sold in 2008, with, and without pools in various price ranges.
Price range Homes Sold Percentage of “Pool Homes”
$350–500K 3351 63%
$501–750K 1543 72%
Over 750K 1212 82%
You can see, as the price for a Single Family Home in the Tampa Real Estate Market climbs, so does the desire for a pool!
Isn’t this a FABU
LOUS pool? The asking price for this home in an exclusive, gated subdivision in Tampa? Over 20 Million!

Jackie,
In my neck of the woods, a pool is mostly a hassle. Very rarely does a pool add value - only if it’s a spectacular pool and in our high end of the market.
By the time you open a pool in New England, it’s Fall and you have to close it again.
