Yes, Ann is correct, pools do not increase the value of one's home, at least
in my area.

My only concern would be leaching of salt solubles over time from the
concrete into the soil.

That's not true. Many people find a pool a liability they just don't
want, it raised your insurance, etc. When I was selling real estate I
was surprised at the attitude towards pools when doing a market
analysis. They can actually lower what a potential seller might get
on the market.
