Hello,
Does anyone have advice for someone looking to purchase their first investment property? Maybe something you wish you knew before buying yours etc. I’m looking at single families

What’s a good baseline amount to keep in a checking account? I generally keep mine pretty low <1000 after paying CCs then dump the rest in savings. As I’m building a rainy day fund and then I will start contributing my brokerage account.

For reference <1 year experience at $4500/month (after taxes and 401k contribution)

Hey 🐠 , how do you guys shop for car insurance? Having a hard time finding a true aggregator site for comparison—they all direct me to individual insurers for quotes. My rate at GEICO just went up 40% so want to shop around a bit…

Let’s talk credit cards! Is there any one which has 0% foreign transaction fee? (Like Revolut)

My father took a home loan, and the same home is kept as mortgage.
I'm paying arround 22k emi for the same but unable to exempt tax as the loan is on my father's name.

I googled a lot how to transfer it but neither gift deed nor sale deed would work as the property is on mortgage that's under bank's ownership (until loan is fulfilled).
Tax is also getting deducted, I'm paying hefty emis.
What can I do?
Please advise 🙂

Hi all, how did you solve the retirement puzzle?

Have any tips?

Question for fellow attorneys:

I applied to a credit card with Chase a few months ago and within 7 days I was told it was rejected and they would send a letter explaining why.

Chase has recently calling to say it expired (they said it wasn’t rejected but I was told on the recorded line that it was).

Any investors have insights into what you look for investing in a social media platform? Is this something you do or do not have interest in/why?

Background is development of a social media platform looking for a $100k investment to get off the ground in a great market with tons of opportunity and proof of concept.

For me, it was Google, Alexa, Jeep, Pringle’s, NFL / Walmart tie. Very few insights this year. Lots of borrowed interest, and A LOT of ads that shouldn’t have been in the game.

So I worked from home yesterday and my husband had a sneak peak on my meetings with clients (which I’m very new to being a senior).

Anyone have thoughts or recommendation?

My Redfin agent recently quit with one day notice to start his own firm. He was the one behind my deal and did a lot of work and help with negotiation. However Redfin called me and said they put their top regional lead on transaction which is set to close in 10 days. I’m conflicted with what to do. As a buyer I know I can switch firms with seller’s consent and it won’t impact the deal, or will it? The agent said if I went with him he’s throw me an additional incentive to close with him.
