What to consider when using the pool loan calculator

Having a pool in your backyard is a dream for many, the idea of swimming, sunbathing and playing in your own pool during summer is very enticing. Not only does it make your home more enjoyable, it can also raise the value of your property.

However, the price of a pool can vary wildly depending on what you choose. There are a myriad of factors that affect the cost of a pool and when planning it is best to look at all the options and start to make a rough plan on what you want so you can have an idea on the cost.

Some pool projects can require a fairly large upfront cost, for many this isn’t possible so financing a swimming pool is a way to get what they want.

What can i afford?

One way to know how much to invest in a swimming pool is to consider the monthly payment, knowing what you can afford monthly allows you to ‘work backwards’ and determine what your budget will be.

Run various scenarios through our pool loan calculator based on different loan amounts, interest rates, and loan terms to determine which option will work best for you using the calculator. Interest rates change regularly and are affected by your credit score, do give you a starting point our current lowest interest rate is 8.49%.

Long or short term loans?

You can find an affordable monthly payment by entering the loan amount and the desired interest rate. For example, by taking out a longer term loan, the monthly payment will be lower and more affordable, but you will end up paying more for the project in the long run. A higher monthly payment mean paying more ongoing but this will shorten the length of the loan and you will ulitmately pay less as the amount of interest is less than what you would on a longer loan. You can learn more about this in our article on ‘how long can you finance a pool?‘.

Don't forget...

Remember that swimming pools also require ongoing maintenance and care in addition to their upfront cost so that needs to factored into your monthly budget. To get an idea about how much it costs to maintain a pool see our article.
