Quad level home w/built in pool - pool removal and resale issues w/home.?

Question

I am currently looking for a new home. I found one that I like but it is a quad (4) level home with a built in pool. I would want to get the pool filled in or removed. Anyone with experience with this? What am I looking at for cost/headache? Also, I have heard selling a quad level home is more difficult than other styles. Any comments on this?

Answer 1

You've not said what kind of pool concrete, fiberglass, vinyl. That would make a big difference as the latter two are easy. Concrete isn't bad, just need some heavy equipment for a couple of days and figure debris disposal cost. Then add in the cost of fill. Remember though they will make a mess of the whole yard. Landscaping will have to be redone no matter.

When you are talking about resell, much depends on the community. In a popular community the home will sell no matter. Rural or less popular you will need to figure the market.

Answer 2

also if you ever decide to sale you will get far less without the pool
