Renting a house with a pool

Jesse Holshouser

Posted

I'm considering buying a triplex with an FHA loan and moving into one of the units. If I do this, I will be keeping my current home as a rental. My biggest concern is the pool. I understand there can be some liability concerns, but I also know that there are people who successfully rent homes with pools. Is there anything I can do to shield myself? Should I remove the pool and deck it over (it's an above ground with a wrap around deck) If anyone has some experience, feedback, or advice, please let me know. Thanks!
