Brrrr, debt free, or a happy medium?

Let me preface this by saying I believe in trying to be/stay debt free if at all possible. With investment properties though, it seems more logical to be into a property around 40% and leverage the remainder. To me this seems like enough to head off any financially tough periods of time (like now) but let the bulk of the load be taken on by other people’s cash. So id love to hear stories about your methods and whats been working for you in the real world. I can’t wait to read your perspectives.
