Swimming pool for maintaining health

[Emma_G]

Hey friends,
My husband was diagnosed with some cardiac problems recently. The doctor suggested doing proper exercises regularly to maintain his health. One of the most effective methods doctors told me was swimming.
We have already decided to move to a new house and now plan to buy one swimming pool. Recently we visited two homes, one with a pool and the other without a swimming pool.
The house with a pool is at the high end of our budget and requires more works. The other is priced low and only requires fewer works but has no pool.
Our preference is to buy a low-budget house and to build a swimming pool of ours.
Is the construction process complicated? Are there hidden costs or hassles we should know in advance?
Please share your opinions.
Thanks!

I'd rather buy a house with a pool rather than building my own pool. Like you said, I really don't like the hassle of construction
