You and the partner are on almost identical salaries eh? So, about the poll thing. I might have a SS poll day soon*. If I don't end up banned, we will have about as many news polls as I have dollars of debt :) * I might not be kidding.

Who said I was aiming to draw conclusions?

I actually thought the overall debt levels would be a bit higher (even accounting for the fact that there are many beginners, as well as folks so far down the track that they have a load of assets and hardly any debt left).

To ensure consistency, I am asking: "How much total debt do YOU carry against your investment properties only?". If you've got a partner, include only your share of debt (based on ownership)*. Land holdings and developments also count. Shares, PPOR mortgages and the like do not...
