We will be installing a semi-inground pool as soon as we move into our home which is in contract. We were offered a great deal for the pool and deck around it by a person we know but it's one of those strike while the iron is hot deals. And so, we were going to have it installed even though it is the end of the season by then.

I am just trying to get a general idea of tax increase from this. My gf told me that your taxes go up like if you had a upground pool, not including the deck of course.

I want to get something like this minus the part of the deck that is w/o railings in the pictrue. I don't want the deck connected to the house b/c after my little termite fiasco, I was told any wood structure attached to the house can attract them. External Image

Also if anyone has done this and have had problems or anything, please post as well or if you remember what you paid.
