Search all homes for sale The fall season is in full swing here in Tyler and as many of you know, it's the toughest time of year to keep your pool clean. With the falling leaves comes a hassle of keeping your pool looking nice while your home is on the market, so I want to share a few tips to make it a bit easier on you. When your home is on the market, you're going to attract three different types of people: there are the people who want a swimming pool, people who don't want a pool, and the most important group, the people who are ambivalent about pools. This is the most important group to think of when selling your home, as they could go either way when it comes to buying a home with a pool.   For buyers who are in the middle about buying a home with a pool, it's usually because one spouse really wants a pool while the other spouse isn't crazy about it. It's crucial that your pool is sparkling clean and looking fantastic so that you can win over these in-the-middle buyers! If a pool is grungy and has a lot of leaves and pine needles in it, people are going to decide they don't want a pool based on its appearance. Although it's a tough time of year to keep your pool looking nice, if you're selling, it's crucial to ensure buyers don't get the impression that pools are a hassle. The bottom line is you need to make your pool look crystal-clear, inviting, and like it doesn't need any work. This will help sway those in-between buyers to purchase a home with a pool! It's already more difficult to sell a home with a pool in the winter months, so don't make it any harder on yourself by not taking good care of it.
