We are closing on three properties at the end of the month with the same JV partner. We have thought about opening up a high interest savings account. We could put a decent amount of the reserve funds into it and receive a good return while still having access to the money.
e.g.
$1000 balance * 3.4% pa.(paid monthly) = 34.53 (per year)
Invested over 5 years = 185.02
Possible of up to $10,000 in the fund. Potential $1,850.20 earnings
I understand that there would be tax implications but the good out performs the bad.
What are other people doing when they have significant reserve funds??? I know that some companies will put their cash into short term GICs…
