I'm being transferred to another city and one of the houses on my short list for location just happens to have a little in-ground concrete pool in the back yard. Something like a Fastlane would have to be installed in it to make it a true swimming pool. This being the Great White North, it probably would be usable from late May to mid-September only, unless I put a building over it.
How much work and expense is involved in operating a backyard pool? Is it worth the trouble? I'm assuming it's usable as the MLS photos showed it full of water.

In the north, it's not really worth the hassle more than likely. In the south, you can leave it filled all year long and it's great.
Plus, odds are you'll inherit a problematic pool. I wouldn't mess with it, if you can help it. You won't get much resembling training done in it.
