We've never owned a pool (and won't) but thought I'd mention another side. Dh was transferred often with his job, and certain areas had lots of in ground pools.
Our realtors would always ask - pool or not - and there were many homes that we liked from pics/description, but the pool was a killer, so never looked at them.
We were told more than once that pools were a liability for most sales, as there were limited buyers that actually wanted to buy them. Unless you really love them, the ins. cost and liability can be steep, plus the maintenance.
