As of the 27th of this month I will have paid off all of my student loans.
I'm looking for investment options that are inline with my short-term and long-term goals. My net take home is $52K and my Haverkamp apartment rent is $1,050.00/mo.
Long-term wise I have a Vanguard Index fund and my I'm in the process of setting up a SEP-IRA through Principal.
Short-term I'm wanting to save up to buy a starter home. I know I need to put 20% down for a home that ranges between $150-$200K. I'm in the process of setting up a Capital One 360 saving account that has 1.7% APY.
My research suggests the Capital One Savings account offers the best Money Market Account interest rate that I can qualify for (assides from BMO Harris bank at 1.95% APY). I'm choosing a money market account simply for the fact that you can continuously contribute to it and close it at any time without any fee's.
My question is what others are doing or have done when looking to maximize their ROI and what deals are out there that I may be missing out on. Also if you've done business with BMO Harris bank or what have your experiences been?
Thanks in advance.
