This page shows you how to record in guito the things you own that don’t live in a bank account or a brokerage, update their valuation over time, save a private note, and archive what you no longer want to track. The latest valuation of each active asset counts toward your net worth. The available categories are Real estate, Vehicles, Art, Collectibles, Commodities, Jewellery, Business, and Other.

Valuations are always manual: guito does not fetch market prices for these assets. Only the most recent valuation feeds your net worth, and values in another currency are converted to euros. If you add a valuation on a date that already has one, guito offers to replace it. The full valuation history is kept so you can track how the value changes.

​
Add notes to an asset

You can save a personal note on an asset, for example to remember a vehicle’s plate or an item’s serial number.
1

Open the asset dialog

When you add an asset, or edit an existing one, open its dialog.
2

Write the note

In the Notes field, write what you want to remember.
3

Save

Confirm. The note shows in the Notes section of the asset’s page.
If you bought a property with a loan and also track that loan as a credit in guito, you can link the two. The property’s detail page then shows the down payment, the financed amount, and your loan-to-value and equity, so you can see the property’s real contribution to your net worth.
