Tax depreciation for pool

[Melinda Rupard]

Good afternoon,

I've been told conflicting information on this question from other sources, so I wanted to ask for clarification here.  One of my rental properties has an in-ground swimming pool. When I bought the property, the pool had already been installed by the previous owners.  I did not pay for the pool.  Am I able to take any tax depreciation for the pool?  Or, is it included in the depreciation for the home? Thank you for your assistance!

Best regards,

M
