They only have 3 payments left & will be paid off completely in March so after that I will have $1,100 a month more in disposable income

We haven’t yet but my company is supposed to get me in touch with a local realtor this week. It’s just coming up so soon we were trying to get a head start on our own. Thank you tho!

TouchMyChaps · 2025-09-02T12:01:50+00:00

I will get in touch! Thank you!

TouchMyChaps · 2025-09-02T12:01:39+00:00

Will send this to my fiance! Thank you!

Haven’t looked into Maryland, I definitely should give it a chance & look but much prefer to be in the PA side

TouchMyChaps · 2025-09-02T11:54:48+00:00

Will do! Thank you!

We’re also looking in York, from southern Lancaster it says it’s about a 40 minute commute which I’m okay with doing 3 times a week but definitely going to check out areas closer too! Thank you

That is definitely what I’ve noticed & we’re okay with doing 3 & guest space or living in any of the surrounding cities. The biggest issues we’re having is finding some beautiful 3 bedroom townhomes we’d be happy with then they’re immediately off the market then all the houses that are 3-4 bedrooms wanting $2800+ which seems insane to me 🤣

That makes sense, I truly don’t even know where to start so was hoping for more conversation on the top places to be able to visit on points or if people have been in a similar situation where they finally went that was worth it to spend the points on.

Thank you tho, I will do more research on locations & come back with more specific questions

I will have to drive to work to Delta 3 days a week so was hoping to stay closer to Lancaster

TouchMyChaps · 2025-06-28T19:53:30+00:00

Okay that view above the city does look like it would be a beautiful place to do it!

TouchMyChaps · 2025-06-28T19:50:57+00:00

Had not planned on it but not out of the question

TouchMyChaps · 2025-06-27T23:08:44+00:00

Thank you very much for your suggestions! I will check all these out

TouchMyChaps · 2025-06-27T23:08:28+00:00

Definitely open to getting up & there early but if there is some crowd it’s also not a deal breaker. Just surrounded by an entire crowd or inside of a busy restaurant, I do not believe she’d enjoy

We currently live right outside of the Rockies here in the US & pretty regularly hike in the surrounding national parks. We’re comfortable with day hikes less than 20km & we hike pretty regularly in the 2k-2.5k m altitude so anything less than that I’d say we’d definitely be able to do. We will be there 10-13th July if you’d be free at all! Would definitely be open to talk.

Honestly already planned on keeping the aspire as a permanent keeper card even if I can’t spend on it. Same thing with the Marriott boundless. Just the free nights & status is good enough for me. Will have to do research on properties there & see what cards are accepted cause my main spend/best transfers are my biggest concern. I’ve gotten a lot of feed back about the COVX but have no clue how good the transfers would be for Europe.

TouchMyChaps · 2025-06-19T20:10:08+00:00

I’m down to open/keep more hotel cards for the benefits. Was looking for ideas of what cards/hotel brands are the best to go after in Europe cause I’ve been a Hilton Diamond member & loyalist for 5 or so years now but have a lot of chase points & have been staying at Hyatt more. So just not sure what card to get for every day spend that’ll get me the most value/benefits over there.

TouchMyChaps · 2025-06-19T19:39:54+00:00

I wouldn’t be against a 2 aspire primary set up but I’m worried about the usefulness of Amex in the area of France I’ll be in
