It seems every time I see a listing for either a pre-owned or new home on a lot I like it has a pool. I really don't think I want a pool. A swim spa maybe (I could put a cover on it) but a pool. They have to be maintained and I don't like the smell of chlorine it gives me a headache. I take an antihistamine when I go to the pool by the post boxes. Plus going there is more social.
I understand some people who want one put it in but why is the developer putting them in. It seems to me that it is a personal thing that should be left to the buyer. It seems if the yard is big enough (what I want) they have stuck a pool in it, plus they tack on 40 to 50 grand for it.

Does anyone else feel this way.
