Credit Cards to Pay the Mortgage

[Anna Cerda]

Hi Real Estate Gurus,

I have a question/curious if anyone here has used any credit cards to pay their monthly mortgages.  I've looked into ideas and have found two:

1. Plastiq- they charge 3% fee

2. Pre-paid card to be purchased with your credit card and then buy a money order- seems burdensome- not sure if totally doable.

If anyone has thought of strategic ways and would share, TIA.

 In most cases, your servicer will not accept payments via credit card. Also why would you want to do this, you then are paying interest on interest???
