Alternatively, you can manually add your home value to Mint.com as well. Either way, adding your home value is important if you’ve added a mortgage so your Net Worth can be calculated accurately. For example, if you have a mortgage added but haven’t added your home value, your debt-to-equity ratio will be majorly skewed.
