Living in the Temecula and Murrieta valley means hot summers (often 100°F+). Naturally, many homeowners ask me: "If I spend $80,000 on a pool, will my home value go up by $80,000?"

The "Cost vs. Value" Reality

The short answer is: Usually, no. In real estate appraisal, Cost does not equal Value.

Typically, in our local market, a pool might add $30,000 to $50,000 to your home's appraised value, even if it cost you $100,000 to build.
