Swimming pool and safety while rehabbing

CK Hwang

Hey everyone, we recently purchased a fixer upper with a swimming pool. The pool is fine, works and is filled and useable. Crazy enough, this is the first time I've ever dealt with a flip where the pool isn't leaking or needs to be drained.

As such I needed some advice on what to do safety wise during the month that the house is being rehabbed. The pool is located in the backyard which can only be accessed via a side gate, but the pool isn't fenced off within the yard. My fear of course is some neighborhood kid scaling the fence and drowning in the pool. Any safety recommendation is great appreciated.
