Pool liability mitigation

Grant Woodward
Posted

Those of you with outdoor pools at your properties - what are you doing to mitigate liability in the event of an accident? 

I see a lot of awesome amenity packed outdoor hang out spaces with outdoor pools posted on the many STR related social media accounts that I follow, but I don't really ever see any pool fences or other safety features highlighted.

I know pools are a must have amenity to compete in many markets and I have to admit that I'm a bit hesitant to enter those markets due to the potential liability risk. Am I being overly precautious?
