I once spent all night pumping 3 feet of water out of a basement, in a monsoon, using a DC pump attached to my truck battery because there was no electricity to the house and the sump pump couldn't work.

The stove & hot water heater are currently electric. 

Energy (propane/electric) costs annually are atleast double to triple for an indoor heated pool, unless it is a small fiberglass insert which guests detest as they are just a little larger than a hot tub. 

Before you know it, you will catch the real estate bug and will want to own all the homes you can! 

You won't sell it if you didn't get permits as most municipalities require you to get a CO or the buyers will do an OPRA request and see you didn't pull permits.If you did electrical or plumbing without a permit, the walls will need to be opened up to expose the work.You won't be ready to sell in 3 months.

As an investor how does $7/month electric help you?
