Swimming pool in a rental?

[Mitch Kronowit]

Here's something I haven't seen anybody bring up yet. Does anybody rent out a house with a swimming pool? I found a house for sale in San Diego with a pool and it got me thinking. Do you pay a pool "boy" to maintain it for you or leave it up to the tenant (I think I know the answer here)? Do pool homes rent faster and/or for higher rents? What are the big issues involved here besides maintenance, e.g., liability, security deposits, etc.?

Looking forward to your inputs, as always. Thanks.

I'm very surprised that house rentals w/pools above or I ground hasn't come up. I'm in SWFL and inground pools are plentiful in both sales and rentals. Rentals allow pitbulls also. 

Best advice you will ever be told about pools.
