First of all, I guess you are off to a great start to early retirement and investing. Let me share a few observations that stood out when looking at your portfolio:
As long as your long-term location plans are not yet finalized, I would try to diversify your portfolio as much as possible. If I look at your current asset allocation, you have quite a lot of different assets, but if you consider their value, you might be quite heavily invested on the (illiquid) real estate side and might be exposed to quite some currency risk. Maybe drafting your own investment strategy including a target asset allocation might help you to get a clear picture of your desired setup in the long run.
Current asset allocation by asset class:- 4% cash
- 4% stock/bond market (depending on your asset allocation in your 401k)
- 3% Investment/insurance policies 7.8k (I guess this behaves similar to bonds)
- 6% real estate US
- 70% real estate India
- 8% other investment
- 5% commodities (gold)
234k
Asset allocation by currency:(I assumed that your family business shares as well as your indian investment policies are in Indian rupees)
- 19% USD
- 81% INR
Asset allocation by liquidity:- 9% liquid or semi-liquid (cash + commodities)
- 91% rather illiquid (Real estate, investment policies, family business shares, 401k)
Of course, this asset allocation will shift in the future as you build equity with your US house and invest further in your 401k, but it also shows that you are not that diversified yet. Therefore, as long as your long-term location plans are not yet finalized, I would try to diversify and balance the investments further.
As a starting point, I would try to
- Increase liquidity (e.g., in the shape of an emergency fund)
- Increase stock and bond exposure (US and international), preferably in tax-advantaged accounts
- Decrease currency risk by increasing USD investment
The investment order might help you in your decisions where to invest further:

Are you breaking even between rental and business income and paying the INR mortgage and the investment/insurance policy? If there is a surplus that you want to keep in India or you cannot repatriate to the US, you could also investigate investing via an Indian stock broker that offers low cost index funds (although I'm not sure if that could have an effect on your US taxes, so consulting a professional might be worthwhile).
