Does anyone use credit cards to pay rent for the points? I hadn't thought about this being an option but I bet it's a great way to earn a truckload of points each year.

Bilt, no annual fee, no added/transaction fee, it's free points

Not churning: use Bilt

Churning: put rent on Ink cards

The latter is much more lucrative

It only makes sense if you have the Bilt card and your building uses Bilt. Otherwise the transaction fees are astronomical

Bilt provides two options for building without Bilt: Routing+Bank account# OR sending a check. No fees for either

In my experience there was a 3% fee for using a credit card, so it would only be worth it if you had a card that gave you >3% cashback on paying rent, and idk any card that does this (maybe the Bilt card the other ppl are suggesting). But rent will almost certainly land in the “other” cashback category which only gets you 1-2% cashback, so no it’s almost never worth it
