The job was turnkey including new sod and irrigation where necessary. The price you quoted above for a basic pool and birdcage is what we paid for our home 8 years ago. Glad we bought and built when we did!
Amen to that! We built about 6 years ago. Had pool, slightly larger than that but no solar, built for 55k. From what I have noticed, a pool increases the value by $150-$200k. (Was 200k but I think prices have modulated slightly & probably temporarily)
