  • No. You should buy a house with a pool in Orlando.

  • Formula: Cost of pool installation and ongoing maintenance over a ten year period during short midwest swimming season vs. cost of joining a country club or going to a public pool during the short midwest swimming season. Pick the side of the formula that's lower.

  • No, buy a house with a big garage and then buy a boat.

  • Yes. Definitely. And you should get me a copy of the gate key.

  • We have a pool. Kids had a lot of fun in it over the years. It has a hot tube too. They are very fun but they are also money pits. We have lived in our house for 12 years and I bet we have spent $15,000.00 on the repair and upkeep.

  • Hot tub! Nearly all forms of entertainment cost money so what is of most utility to you?

  • I saw a house in WDM that built a heated outbuilding above the small pool. It also had a sauna and hot tub in it. Too bad the house and pool were both tiny. But that's the way to do it! Build a hotel in your back yard.

  • House with a pond so you can hockey in the winter.

  • I grew up with neighbors who had a pool. It's a lot of work to maintain if you don't plan on using it a lot. We always had to help clean the pool before swimming. So my recommendation is to buy a house near friendly neighbors who own a pool.

  • bad for home values and insurance. Maintenance headache. Good for parties and 2 months of summer.
