Home rehab - Cracked Pool - Repair or fill?

Hello! I was wondering if I could get some advice regarding a flip home with a cracked concrete pool in Florida. From what I've gathered (without being able to get an estimate yet), it will cost upwards of $10k to completely repair the pool. I'm wondering if I should go through with that route or if I should hire someone to correctly refill the crack and do a repair with a sealant that, while not permanent, will last a year or so, if possible. I can still make a profit spending the $10k, but I'm wondering if it's worth it?

Thank you!

I figured it would be in the middle. Lol.

I'd flip a coin! :) 

J/k, as someone stated above I'd look at the neighborhood and determine if that's the norm or not.

I'd also get a few bids as I found pool bids to be a HUGE variety when we had pool work done.

Good luck!
