I've had the Cap One Duo for 2 years now, been running it really well, accumulated a ton of miles on my Venture X, and I am looking now for ways to improve my spend and transfer partner list, as I am about to move to NYC.
From what I've seen, I feel like there are a couple of options to improve it: BILT Pallidum to capitalize on rent or go the AMEX gold route to open up more transfer partners.
So I would love to hear thoughts from those with any of the cards in this system. I know there have been issues with BILT, but with such a high rent payment, it seems to be a no-brainer to get those points. However, this does seem to make my venture X obsolete.
Not sure if there are other strategies out there to optimize SUBs, but I do have a bunch of spending coming up with moving.

I’ve been running the Bilt palladium and Amex gold setup. Normally I do the BBP and Amex gold but want to give Bilt a chance because of their transfer partners and getting points in my mortgage. So far so good. Been getting a ton of points from Bilt
bilt makes sense for nyc rent but dont sleep on the amex gold for dining – that 4x really adds up when youre eating out constantly in the city
