This study employs the Ordinary Least Square (OLS) method and the macroeconomic variables used consist of gross domestic product (GDP), interest rate and house price. The data for all variables are taken from the period of quarter one 2008 to quarter four 2017 via Data Stream. The results display that the gross domestic product (GDP) and house price show a positive significant relationship to household debt in Malaysia.
