I am always looking for a way to make

A buck on my escrow monies I save monthly for the end of year taxes. I have stumbled across citi bank offering a $700 bonus if you open a new account and fund it with non citi money. You only need to fund it with

50k. Let it sit there 60 days and they will credit you $700. Last year I did this with cap one 360, but they only paid $450. If anyone has any interest, just google

Thanks...that might cover my annual beer bill! ;-)

Sid, you can’t beat free beer money. :)

Homer,

Roy, when I started buying houses, I had to leverage heavily. We didn’t have $5k houses in my area. My banks allowed me escrow my own money for taxes and insurance instead of them doing it, I wanted to be in control of it since it’s a great deal of money. So where

Does the

Money come from? It comes monthly from my tenants. When they pay rent. I save $9000 per month In order to have enough to pay each December. I wish our tax rate was closer to what the great state of Alabama has, but it is what it is.

I have done this for years upon years with different banks, different credit cards, etc. I found my fave bank doing it, and still use other banks.
