@Chris GeerHi Chris, Living in Atlanta , I see blue tarps on $700k+ homes for weeks. ( The better ones come in brown and are very durable).

its a little far from the blue line so I basically broken down the potential personas to the following 1) Single Parents looking for good neighborhood school (Beaubien / Taft are considered better in the CPS neighborhood school rankings)2) lower income young room mates looking to split rent3) late 20 early 30s work from home and wanting to get away from the hustle and bustle of the hipper neighborhoods and save some money4) people who have lived in the area for a while and like the areafor each one I look up the demographic for the area / city and then target income level and assume for any given year there's probably 5% of the overall demographic that would be looking to move.

Hi Sam,Do you think you have a steady stream of potential renters who will pay a premium for the pool vs without.To me, above ground pools are:[1] mainly for kids and teens,[2] says successful blue collar family (most of the time).Look up how much that pool heater will cost to run (I'm betting it's will be more than you think).Look up how much water is lost by evaporation and has to be replaced in your area.Pools require "Pool Chores" to keep them clean and running right.

Maybe you feel blue, maybe your sky is falling, it sure as heck is not the case for the rest of us moving WITH the market and going where the opportunity is. 

And being on the ocean I don’t think it will matter that much.

I was notified basically Tuesday out of the blue, by the realtor, that they wanted to show the house on wed and asked to get out later in the week.

I live in the south bay area of Los Angeles, near the ocean.

I think of all the blue collar hard working individuals & middle class as well as first time home buyers that I was fortunate to work with and assist in building real estate portfolios. 

People in the $3,000 rental may downgrade to a $2,000 rental.In my experience, the people that tend to move up/down the least are the blue collar families.

Also, as a stepping stone buy a duplex in an "up and coming, working class, blue collar neighborHOOD".
