Leaves and debris not being cleaned out jam up pumps, chemical balances are a constant annoyance, possible plumbing issues, extra water costs.

You are looking more of the large manufacturing facility or chemical company type place.

This outgass chemicals can cause headache, vomiting taking forever to get rid of it.

The wear and tear on the place would be harsh, and yet to bring in the right renters, it would also have to be high end. 

By the by, I probably come across as harsh and I don't mean to.

The cost of this will not only be filling the pool, but the constant maintenance (treating it with chemicals and possibly having it cleaned) and increase in insurance.

It seems like everyone in my life has an extremely harsh opinion concerning REI.

Both quotes, although a bit harsh, are deadly accurate.

I've got cash to close the deal and/or preapproval for financing if needed.Why I'm looking for this specific building type and location is that my other company manufactures construction chemicals and products, with an emphasis on masonry restoration and adaptive reuse of buildings, based in Lawrence KS.

Speaking of costs, if I did have a rental with a pool, I would factor in the cost of you (the landlord) providing/paying for the regular maintenance and chemical treatment because tenants aren't likely to do it (at least not properly).
