I think Ally has a no penalty CD that is 1.75%.  You can take the money out at any point, but you'll have to take it out the full amount, which differs from a savings account at closer to 1.3%.

Hi all,

 

I have a relatively gifting me $100K, and I intend to use it for a future downpayment for a house in approximately 18 months.  I'd like to throw into a high interest account or 12 month CD, than add to it every month until I intend to buy.

Does anyone have any suggestions for what I should do?  Was looking at Ally Bank for competitive rates (per Boglehead forums), but honestly don't know what other options exist.

 

Thanks
