By property I don’t necessarily mean real estate. A healthy portfolio either defered retirement or not should be one form of required property.

One advantage of requiring the voter to own real property (a home, a business, etc), is that he directly and immediately stands to lose if the people he votes for adversely affect the business climate or property values in his area.

I agree with all of these.
