truly a wise move, if you aren't married to your house and land, if impartial to it in the least, think about moving. Oh you can't afford a bigger house but can afford throwing 60k for a pool getting no money back?
Sell house price + 60k equals your price point for more house w/ a pool already. good luck.

Not in todays market. My wife and I explored this option when we decided we wanted a pool. Our same sqft house with a pool down the street from us was $115k more than what I owe on our house. We opted to put in our own pool for $40k. Todays market is really high.

I never looked it as an investment or how much I'd recoup if/when we sell. My "ROI" comes from knowing we will use it all the time, have friends and family always around on the weekend, plus just always having something to do outdoors in the LA summers.
same here. I know HOA pools are great because you don't have to maintain them, but being able to have privacy BBQing by the pool with family and friends over definitely trumps the maintenance.
