Thinking of closing down personal Amex so cashed the rest out on Amazon credit

Can you use the amex points on hotel? I'd cash out on hotel during roadtrips.

Yeah I moved mine into Marriott points and have managed to yield over 2¢ per point with them so that was worth it to me

One item borrowers shopping for mortgages get too caught up in is rate. Most borrowers don’t know how to read a loan estimate and get taken advantage all the time. Just because a lender/bank offers you a low rate doesn’t mean it’s best deal. Most cases, especially now since rates have gone up, you are being charged points for some of these lower rates in the 4s. If you don’t know or understand discount points feel free to shoot me a message and I can help you review estimate and see if can beat
