I'm a bit more old fashioned.
I own all my property outright. That way when the Reserve Bank actually cannot prop up the economy on it's own by artificially keeping the rate low - I won't lose a thing. And I'll never have a steadily increasing payment to make to a bank. Ever.

How are the property prices in Oz?
Are you wealthy, is land cheap, or do you just own a large patch of sand near the middle (with onsite bathing facilities)?

One rental place worth mid 3's across the road from a big patch of gazetted bushland.
Got that 10 odd years ago for about 150.
The manse (about 5 min from the beach) we got for sub 6, it'd be in the early 7's now. (Big blocks the 2 of them).
Nothing feels quite like holding a couple deeds of title.
No property mogul but between the fact that I own outright every thing that I, umm... own, I work and the missus and I have a nice nestegg that's well invested - I can't complain really.
