saving for a house so going to take some gains...where to stick it?

The wife and I are saving up for a down payment for a house. I'm going to pull some money out of the market and take some gains. I'm thinking I'm going to put it in a Schwab 'high yield' (LOL) savings account. Sucks that you have to open an account by filling out an application and send it in. Does anyone else have any suggestions with a good place stable place to save the money before I jump with Schwab?

Find a community bank that offers reward checking accounts. You will have to meet some requirements each month, but some banks are offering 2-3% on reward accounts.

mag, any suggestions? I live in NOLA but am open to any bank I can do online.

Neighbors offers reward checking at 2-3% with a fairly low limit around 10K. United community (ascension) offers 2-3% up to 25K.

So you have an account with Schwab that you are selling some positions. Is this correct? How much money are we talking? You can use pbsmx, which is what I use as an alternative to MM. I also use lccix, but I am not sure you can buy it through Schwab.

No Flame, but why PBSMX? It's a loaded fund isn't it? And LCCIX has a very high entry point, unless I'm missing something

You're right, they do not compare to cyberbeans. My bad, carry on.
On certain platforms pbsmx is not loaded and lccix does not have a high entry point. That is why is said mentioned whether Schwab will allow it. I buy it both with no problems.

Check on bankrate to see what they list
I remember seeing a website once that was all about checking accounts but I can't remember the name of it
It was something checking.com and it listed out all the highest yield accounts

$2,000,000 Minimal Initial Investment, Do you mean LCCMX?

Not sure about lccmx. I buy lccix, the institutional share class. Certain trading platforms allow this at lower entry levels. As far as cyberbeans, I can't help you. My platform isn't at that level yet.
