Anyone heard of or used BILT credit card for paying rent? Someone told me about it and curious to hear experiences. It’s a card you can use to pay rent without any fees regardless of what portal you use to pay

What’s your goal? I’ve always paid my rent/mortgage with money I have (check, ACH). Are you trying to float rent or are you looking for % back on expenses?

Just started looking into it. Looks like a good way to earn rewards from rental payments, or things you wouldn’t necessarily get them back on. Would deep dive into the fine print though, as far as potential fees or drawbacks. Does look like it has some benefits BUT I haven’t had a lot of time to really look through it yet.

Its a solid card. Have used it for over a year. You have to use the card 5x in a month in order to get the credit card fee waived on rent. Can easily find some small charges to put on the card that will qualify. I used to reload my amazon account 5x each month for $1 a piece

Thanks you sound really knowledgeable!

Yeah, it's a MasterCard from Wells. You can pay rent while avoiding transaction fees and also there's no annual fee for the card itself

I think so, rent is 3k a month for me. So that’s $360 I’d get back I wouldn’t have otherwise annually. Or even more when transferred to Hyatt.

This seems like Marketing for BILT credit card. The comments are suppose to be coming from people who alledgedly work at EY, JP, KPMG, are are renting. Alledgedly they are paying their rent using this card. I call bs, People in general are very asset oriented let alone people who work at those firms. I'm sure it has much to do with the nature of the business. No one is using a credit card to pay rent if he or she can help it. The rewards on such card would need to be hella inticing to card holders where it would not make sense unless only to full fill a short term usage motive by the credit card company.Bad idea

You don't know what you are talking about. This is a great idea. It's like someone offering you a 1% - 3% discount on your rent. Why on earth wouldn't you do this? You are going to pay your rent anyway so why not use a card and pay it off immediately and pocket the points? "No one is using a credit card to pay rent", cause you couldn't until BILT came along. Otherwise everyone would have been doing it for the points.

Do you pay your credit cards in full every month?

I ask because I’ve let my credit spending get a bit lax since moving and adopting a puppy recently, so I haven’t been paying them off in full every month like I used to (though still well above the minimum payment, and keeping utilization at 30% or under). It got me thinking about how many people adhere to this advice.

I just hit my lean fire number but am hesitating to pull the trigger, so was hoping to run it by people smarter than me:

- I have a few rentals that bring in ~$1800/mo cash flow, taxes are negligible, Capex incl.
- My paper assets will bring in ~$1200/mo at 3% draw
- I get free Healthcare at the VA
- No plans on kids
- My expenses haven't topped $30k/yr ever
- I could always reenter the workforce if needed (albeit probably not in consulting)

Please point out the flaws here, what am I missing?
