Poll: Primary Home as % of Net Worth

[flintnational]

Wandering afield, per normal. So in the ongoing search of odd but somewhat attractive places I found this. Have to wonder - is the inhabitant used to prison cells? Plans to lock
people up in behind the interior commercial steel doors with deadbolts? Maybe they are of the werewolf persuasion and lock themselves in.. No interior light? Whats that about?

Check pictures 17 and 33. Yummy!

Of course they have commercial dead bolts and wire over the windows. How else are they going to keep the zombies out?

I remembered a poll like this shortly after I joined. It was triggered by a long thread discussing the same issue. Came up with a quick search.

Well over 40% of projected "NW" as defined here. Caveats: I'll have a pension which accounts for roughly half of our annual spend, and we live in southern California so home value is silly.

We're at 16.67%, early 50's, 900k primary home equity (no debt), to 5.4M total net worth.

I like to think my house is worth $500K because that's what I've put into it over 30 years, but realistically it is probably closer to $350K which puts me at 17.5%. Mortgage is paid off but I still have a HELOC of about $75K.

Thanks! I knew I’d seen one, but I never do well with searches on older threads Results appear similar despite different “bins.”

Using the OP's formula, we are at 19%. Not too bad since we will have pension income that I am not counting in my net worth.
