There are several reasons why you may want to get rid of your used hot tub.\u00a0 Perhaps you\u2019re in the market for a new one.\u00a0 Or maybe you\u2019ve sold your house and the new owner has requested you remove the tub before he moves in.\u00a0 Regardless, many clients ask us how much their used hot tub is worth.\u00a0 And the answer is never a simple one.<\/p>\n

There are many factors involved in determining a resale price.\u00a0 For example, a hot tub that is larger than standard-size can garner considerable more money than a miniature version.\u00a0 The depth of your tub and the quality of its shell casing will also affect the price dramatically.\u00a0 Intense water pressure can warp the casing over time.\u00a0 Even though no one will notice this deformity right away, a disfigured casing will definitely become apparent once the hot tub is removed from its current foundation.\u00a0 Keep this factor in mind when pricing your unit and showing it to potential buyers.<\/p>\n

Because of the intimate nature of a hot tub, cleanliness is very important to potential buyers.\u00a0 Do not try and raise the price of your equipment without taking a critical (and honest) look at its wear-and-tear.\u00a0 If the tub\u2019s interior is visibly discoloured or grimy, it will be very tough to re-sell even if you are trying to give it away for free.<\/p>\n

Often times, sellers will ask for 50% of the hot tub\u2019s purchase price.\u00a0 For example:\u00a0 If Bob paid $6,000 for his brand-new tub 3 years ago, he will try and re-sell it used for $3,000.\u00a0 In Bob\u2019s mind, this is a reasonable calculation.\u00a0 However, a smart potential buyer will have done his research.\u00a0 He will know that there are dozens of factory-direct retailers out there that allow consumers to buy straight from the manufacturer.\u00a0 Often times, it is possible to purchase a brand-new hot tub (with shipping\/installation included) for under $3,000.\u00a0 As a seller, you must keep in mind various market scenarios and price your hot tub accordingly.<\/p>\n

If you\u2019d like to sweeten the deal for a potential buyer who is currently on the fence, you can include shipment in the purchase price.\u00a0 This would require you renting a truck for the afternoon and driving it over to the buyer\u2019s home.<\/p>\n

Before determining an exact cost, examine the used hot tub market in your region for a few weeks.\u00a0 Check out websites like Craigslist and Kijiji to see what other sellers are pricing their units at.\u00a0 Even though your hot tub may not be the same model, size and cleanliness are easily comparable factors.\u00a0 You may also notice that some sellers are throwing in \u201cfree perks\u201d, like free shipping and new parts.\u00a0 Consider ways to make your offer more attractive to ensure that your unit sells quickly.\u00a0 Perhaps you have a good-quality cover that you\u2019re willing to throw in for free.\u00a0 Or maybe you have some brand-new, high-powered jets lying around that never got installed.<\/p>\n

There are always consumers looking for a used hot tub that is of great quality.\u00a0 So price your unit reasonably and potential buyers will certainly come by for a peek.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
