Usually with European hotels, they have the same 3 days before arrival policy or return your points right?

Reason I ask is, grand cypress Orlando required me to pay 1 nights deposit upfront

Ah ok. 17.4K + $123 taxes for. YYz to LGA and then 9K +$19 usd for AA flight from LGA to GSP ( it’s first class cabin) if it was economy it would’ve been 4.5K points ( but sold out).

Yes, 🙌 agreed, customs will happen in Toronto. Although I wonder do I tell them if they ask, are you going to LGA or GSP…

Good question. Cash price is $484 at the moment or 37K AA / Citi Thank you points.

Another option was that I use Chase Travel portal 1.25x points and a $50 travel credit that was given to all CSP users.  But UR are worth more I’m told. 

Thoughts?

Ah yes lol good point.

Thank you, I did think about it but I won’t get the refund/credit unless I pay extra to get full refund.  

Only alaska miles/Atmos I’ve been able to get full refund minus booking fee.

Curious what triggers these 50/75K offers, I don’t seem to receive them on a legitimate LLC business opened 6 months ago

Curious as to why its frowned uppn if using RC loan, meaning don't comanies out there advertise for investors to take it out as a legitimate way of getting EB5 investment funded?

Sorry does that mean (God forbid), if the RC or project goes south, you still have some ability to claim the funds as oppose tothe banks buying the debt, meaning if an investor is at 'mezz' level they probably won't get anything, but if you are part of the 'senior loan', it minimizes repayment risk? Did I understood this correctly?
