The following changes in the number of homes for sale were observed in this housing market: number of 1 bedroom homes increased by 3.4%, number of 2 bedrooms homes increased by 6.9%, volume of 3 bedrooms homes went up by 2.8%, 4 bedrooms homes inventory increased by 9.8%, 5 bedrooms homes became 4.4% more available.

The only time I'd have a rental with a pool would be the following conditions:- Property must be high end and attract high quality tenants who are more likely to care about maintaining it, will be observant enough to notify you of any issues with it, and will exercise some personal responsibility (keeping gates shut, dipping leaves out of skimmer and pool, filling it with water when it gets low and remembering to shut it off, etc)- The pool itself should have a fence around it to keep out children and animals from accessing it.
