RE considerations for NW
As many have stated; we do count our primary home in net worth, but not investible assets.
For investible assets we only include our rental properties in the mix and I count them as bonds type assets.
So, while our IRA's may show 90% stocks/ETF's, the overall portfolio of investments (including rental properties) are more like 60/40. Most modeling tools don't have a mechanism to recognize rental properties so we just show that as cash in the tool.
When you calculate asset allocation, do you include your home value as an alternative asset? I tried to search and could not find this discussed.
