Above ground into Inground?

We recently purchased a home with an in ground pool. Only problem was that the previous owners were trying to get rid of it. It is a concrete pool, 5 foot deep all around, free form. I want to know if I can just stick a regular above ground pool straight in, and if so which kind would you recommend?

Hi, if the bottom of the pool is flat any above ground pool could be installed in it. You would need the pool size to be a few feet smaller than the existing hole. You will need room to work around the outside of the pool as you are installing it.

If the existing pool base is not flat you could always bring in enough fill dirt to level the area and then install the new pool. It all sounds very possible though.
