Investment Considerations
When evaluating pool properties, consider: 1) The price premium of 59.0% is justified only if supported by higher rental rates or stronger capital growth. 2) Pool type matters — private pools command higher rental rates than communal, but also incur maintenance costs of €1,000–€3,000/year. 3) Resale liquidity is generally stronger for pool properties as they appeal to both investors and lifestyle buyers.
