I agree with Joe. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. For some a pond does
not represent beauty but maintenance. and a mess. I don't think it would
decrease your property's value but * doubt you'd get more than 50% return
on your investment unless the person was a pond geek like you.

My head is spinning after looking at a dozen or so web sites that sell

Its dimensions are approximately 5' long by 3' wide by 2' deep;
according to pond capacity calculators I used, this equals approximately
225 gallons. It has a waterfall that rises about 2' above the pond.

Can anyone recommend--and point me to--a dual-discharge pump for this
pond? Any recommendations for good online sources? I've never bough
t
pond supplies online so I'm not familiar with any of the companies, and
I'd like to buy from a company with a good reputation.

Hi, i was wondering if having a pond in your yard will increase the
houses worth?


Only maybe. Here in So Cal, there are probably an even number of people
who
want a pool (those with kids) as those who don't (those without kids)

Had one, now have a pond - much better!

So, if there is a buyer who says, "wow great pond!" then it will increase
the value, but if you get the guy who thinks, "Ack! Think of the
maintenance." not so much.
