Used Above Ground Swimming Pool Value

What's a pre owned, 27ft, round above ground swimming pool worth? Will need new ladder, solar cover, winter cover, chem kit and maybe new liner. Pump and filter in very good condition. Thanks



Hi. The value of a pool will depend on many factors. The season is one thing, used above ground pools sell better in the spring than the fall. Pools sell better when they are up and running, as opposed to being taken apart and looking like a pile of parts.

The age and condition of the pool is a big factor also. The older the pool the less it will be worth. A newer pool in poor condition, however, could easily be worth less than an older pool in excellent condition.

The brand of pool is important to many buyers. A brand name like Doughboy will usually bring more than a brand no one has heard of.

Another thing to consider is the price of a new liner. I would not lead anyone to believe that the used liner can be re-used. They usually can not, unless the liner is less than 2 years old. Even then it is more trouble than it is worth. I would go online and buy a new liner for the pool, leave it in the box and sell it with the pool.

These are a few of the variables to consider when pricing a used pool. Your pool might sell for as little as $400.00 or as much as $1500.00.
