Expert Guidance from Lyon Financial, The Industry’s Pool Financing Leader Since 1979
A backyard pool is more than a luxury; it’s an investment in your home, your lifestyle, and your family’s memories. When it comes to pool financing, many homeowners wonder if it’s better to use savings or to explore a loan.
At Lyon Financial, we’ve helped hundreds of thousands of families across the U.S. turn their backyard dreams into reality. While paying cash may seem appealing, financing often offers a smarter and more flexible path forward. Here’s why financing your pool may be the best move for your budget and long-term goals.
Avoid Delays & Start Your Project Now
Financing allows you to begin construction right away, without the need to wait years while saving the full amount. Take advantage of seasonal builder availability, lock in current material and labor rates, and start enjoying your pool sooner. Waiting could mean longer lead times, missed summer memories, and higher costs down the line.
Smarter Cash Management & Long-Term Flexibility
Financing your pool helps you make a major investment without putting your financial stability at risk. Here’s how:
Preserve Your Savings
Emergencies happen: medical bills, job changes, unexpected repairs. Financing allows you to keep cash in the bank for when you really need it, rather than depleting your reserves all at once. Even better, keeping those funds intact means they can remain in savings or investments, where they may continue to grow or earn interest over time.
Safeguard Against Economic Uncertainty
In times of inflation or market shifts, having a financial cushion provides peace of mind. Financing your pool means you’re not draining your reserves, even while upgrading your lifestyle.
Match Payments to Long-Term Use
Your pool will bring value and enjoyment for 15 to 30 years or more. Financing allows you to align monthly payments with that long-term benefit, rather than front-loading all the cost.
This strategy offers both protection and predictability, making it easier to stay financially resilient while still moving forward with your project.
Build (or Strengthen) Your Credit
Financing through Lyon Financial can help build a stronger credit profile. On-time monthly payments demonstrate financial responsibility to lenders, which can improve your credit score and open doors to future opportunities.
Get More Features & Upgrades
With financing, you can expand your vision beyond the pool itself, without compromising your budget. That might include:
- Outdoor kitchens or fire features
- Patios, pergolas, or fencing
- Custom lighting, turf, or landscaping
Financing provides you with the flexibility to create a fully customized backyard retreat from the outset.
