Alaska airlines or delta airlines to get all my points status matches to?

Match to the one that minimizes connections. If you live in an AA or UA hub, you might want to consider them instead for example.

I’ll be in Seattle

I have MVP Gold with Alaska and Platinum with Delta. I also live in Seattle.
Alaska benefits: Better seats, better food, easy change of flights, better miles value
Delta: better entertainment, better lounge, easier to get upgrades for Seattle flights

Clearly I couldn't choose one over the other, so I went for mid-tier status with both. It also depends on where you are flying to. For example, 90% of flights from Seattle to Texas are Alaska

Delta

Alaska! You can do the match with Delta, but Alaska is by far my favorite domestic carrier. But also depends where you live. I'm in a hub city so it's great for me (except sometimes when I fly to a diff airport hub I can have fewer options)

We own a rental property that has appreciated quite a bit and have the opportunity to do a 30-yr cash out refi at 75% LTV that would leave us with about $200,000 at the end of the deal. Rent currently wouldn’t cover the costs and we’d need to deploy the cash and earn about $750/mo to break even. We’d ideally like to use the money to invest in other property and syndicates. Seem like a good idea? Not sure if we are over leveraging ourselves and it’s worth the risk.
