    Do NOT buy, without a LOT more information!

    You need to be able to factor in EITHER
    • the cost of removing it, OR
    • the cost of repairing it.

    You absolutely should get a quote on removing it: expect to pay for the quote, AND to find that the cost of removal will be surprisingly high.

    But to get a meaningful quote on repairing the pool, you MUST get it running and clear. There's simply no effective and complete way to check a pool, including piping, mechanical components and pool surface, without operating it.

    You may want to say as much to the bank and suggest that THEY either get it running OR provide a verified pool removal quote. Otherwise, they will ONLY be able to sell he pool to suckers!
