5 Reasons to Buy a Swimming Pool in March/April vs. After May 1st

Why is it in YOUR best interests to buy a swimming pool in March or April, as opposed to waiting until after May 1st? Here are 5 simple but honest reasons why it's time to start looking now if you are in the market to potentially buy a pool for your family this season:

1) You'll likely spend more money if you wait. This is as honest as it gets. When demand is high, prices are high. When demand is low, prices are low - that's simply how it works. My point? Take advantage of demand (or lack thereof in this case)!

2) You'll have to wait longer to swim if you wait. It's not unusual for pool companies to get backed up 8-10 weeks after March. So many people base their buying decisions on warm weather that the flood of sales means that instead of the pool company starting your project as soon as the permits are ready, they can't actually start for 45, 60, or more days. This, as you may well imagine, can end up cutting into your swim season.

3) Your yard will have a chance to heal. Pool construction is messy, to be sure. After final grading is complete, grass will need time to grow. For those families that get their pool installed in the spring, their yard will look much nicer during the summer months than the families that waited longer to make a decision.

4) Less stress. It's funny how stress-free early season installations are. Homeowners aren't worried about swimming yet, so everyone can just relax and enjoy the process for what it is. But once it gets hot outside and the kids are asking every few minutes "Can we swim yet?", and you'll wish you had acted sooner on your swimming pool purchase.

5) You're not so rushed. Who wants to be rushed when it comes to spending 20K - 70K on a swimming pool? I don't know about you, but I like to feel like I've got my wits about me when I'm making such a big decision. By shopping for a pool now, you can make a relaxed and informed decision, and not base your thoughts on silly situations like "which company can start the soonest?"
