[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Depends on your NW, there is a point where remaining 60% is a lot of money and has huge buying power.  Putting 1/3 or 1/2 of your NW into RE you occupy isn’t generally smart way to allocate money as it doesn’t work hard enough for you. But it all depends, it works out for some people.  It really really all depends on how wealthy one is.  For middle classes most of their NW is their home, the richer people get the lower this ratio gets just because of purchasing power. [/quote]

Ah so rental properties don’t count? We have most of our money in real estate but 80% of that is in rental properties. We probably only have less than 20% based on the equity we have in the house we live in.[/quote]

Rentals are income generating assets/investments, not something you would count as your housing RE allocation.    For some people it’s where most of their wealth is allocated.  You could think it’s bad or good, but the point is that it’s not money buried under your a$$ in a home(s) you occupy.  [/quote]
