How does everyone use their Chase points? I usually just transfer them to Hyatt and use them for vacation stays - feel like I get good value there. Anything else I am missing out on?

We transfer for business class airfare. Usually we can generate 7c/pt this way.

We book four round trip international business flights a year and this easily saves us tens of thousands annually.

We often transfer to Aeroplan as you can merge many different credit card points to this program. It makes it easy to come up with 300k miles when you can transfer from multiple places

Same but here to see if there is anything better

Yeah is a good value - but pretty much only for Hyatt at 5pts/$1. I really liked the pay yourself back option on the Reserve.

I typically use mine for resorts not affiliated with Hyatt or Marriott, although often it is better to use Chase points than Marriott points for a lot of upper tier properties.

It used to be great to use Pay Yourself Back at 1.5ccp with the Reserve. Now the categories are so restricted that I'm back to just using URs to transfer to Hyatt.

When selling a home have been able to negotiate lower commission with your broker if the buyer is not represented by a realtor (eg, 3% in this situation versus still paying the full 6%)?

I closed on a new build a few weeks ago and now the same home is available for much less with the builder offering all appliances, additional credits, and buy down of the rate. Is there anything I can do to get now? It seems unfair that I paid more and didn't get the incentives.
