When I questioned her more about it, she told me if we had a pool, it would rent at a better price.

You can give me a range of the rents you got. (2020 to 2022).

Thanks!
Go to the website, today’s market is much different than pandemic rent. However a home with a pool rent can be $6,000 to $12,000 a month. You also need to stipulate heating/chilling pool is not included in rental. You also need a separate deposit if they chose to heat, that money can be deducted, rent is only for two adults. Any guests remain on property is an additional fee.

Any tampering with pool controls automatically voids rental agreements.

99% of the time a 3 months pool rental upfront monies either long term or seasonal is $30,000 to $40,000. Those forking out that cash is rarely a problem
