I'd use as level 4: I don't care how much my (primary) house costs.

Beyond that there might be, "I don't care how much my second (third, etc.) house costs".

And of course, there's the level where someone asks, "how many houses do we own, again"?

There's a scene in an episode of the "Parks and Recreation" show where Peter Serafinowicz is playing "His Royal Excellence Lord Edgar Darby Covington, 14th Earl of Cornwall-Upon-Thames and 29th Baron of Hertfordshire". He and Andy (Chris Pratt's character) are standing in a courtyard and His Excellence is pointing out the buildings his family owns.

Andy: "So what else does your family own?"

Edgar Covington: "Well... have you heard of Scotland?"
