Looks like Chase is out, and with the GrAAvy train derailing and the denial already probably doesn't make sense to pursue that. What about the AmEx call in for the Platinum? I don't have it, but there is a write up on Dischurners. It's a hefty AF and high $10,000 MSR, but if you could make that work with your home renovations I think it could be a possibility. Of course, that does require you to keep the AmEx rat happy by continuing to put some spend on the card when you are done as well.Ok so here's what I'm working with. I should add that I have a very reluctant/skeptical P2:
- Typical organic, non-mortgage spend is about 1500-2000/mo but has been waaaay more lately due to our massive home renovation. Doing a lot of Home Depot and Lowes purchases and it kills me that we have zero amex offers for Lowes since those seem to pop up all the time.
- Still have a few large expenses we're planning on in the next few months, including landscaping, furniture, décor, etc.
- Not planning another WDW trip next year, but could be persuaded if we can work out the funds (DH just streamed the Boo to You parade last night for the kids and said "why do I want to go back already?")
- We ARE planning a long overdue honeymoon/anniversary trip next year (maybe Scotland? Hawaii? still working out details) and hoping to use our URs but would also like to take more local weekend trips (Asheville, Charleston, etc.)
- Closest airports are GSP, CLT, and ATL.
- Annnnd I can't remember what else I'm supposed to put here so that's all!
