Your property investment debt.

I feel better now, having halved my debt.

But my hubby won't be impressed if he knows how much debt he has.

What about an LVR poll?

They are just numbers !

LVR would be a good additional poll, & possibly a net assets (property) poll.

I agree. Both polls I've considered making too. If not one beats me to it, they'll come.

pinkboy, you make valid points but I think you've misunderstood the purpose of this poll. I'm not seeking a holistic insight into debt levels, loan value ratios, net worth, equity positions etc.

I'm after a simpler, more isolated metric -- just investment property debt.

But there is nothing to measure it. Its represents nothing more than a number with no meaning.

Your other polls will give you better data.

Data without a framework or context to interpret it is just a mass of numbers.

Where's the poll option saying "Who cares!"

Where's the poll option saying "Who cares!"

Or the "not enough" option

I fall into the "don't know" and "not enough" categories.

I'm in the market to increase my debt but I can't find a good deal where I want to buy.

Im actually suprised to see that most people are over half a million in the hole. I would have thought it would be mostly 350k or less.

Why do none of these polls have an option for zero? Would be interesting to see the spread of newbies on the forum.

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).

Ya, there might also be people with several houses but 0 debt, too.

These polls never give a true representation of the SS Investors given that only 130 people have participated in the poll and there are over 14,400 SS members (although many members are inactive or may no longer visit this site).

The stats at front page says there are 22,800+ active members!

Why are you after that ??

As Alexlee mentioned, without a framework or context, the jumbled mass of anonymous numbers will draw what conclusions ??

Debt as a multiple of employment salary might be interesting.
Mines about 11x now

Now this would be really interesting poll. Richard could you please create one?

Ours is 13x. Will go to 25x once we drop to one wage
