Chase Sapphire Preferred vs Amex Green Card ??

On the other hand was thinking Amex since our corporate card is Amex and I already have membership rewards to Amex.

Both have equally good benefits for mid travel benefits
And also I believe Amex will have less annual fee since we have Corporate card. right ?

Hi all! I’m new! I started the year off planning to save for a home for myself, then rates skyrocketed. So we’re holding off. Fast forward to the final quarter of the year and we were presented with the idea of a residential assisted living facility. The problem there is we’d still need to acquire property in order to run one. The only difference is the RAL would be a business and is already registered as such. Does anyone have any experience here?
