Chase or Wells Fargo Bank

Jessica Cooper
Posted
Hello, I am currently looking to start the build up to my first investment property.

I am currently weighting the options of new bank. As my main/current bank is a military bank/credit union and I don't like that I cant see all pending transactions and deposits until a certain time (which is a little annoying, I prefer to see it at anytime of the day). And I would like the perk of multiple branches across the U.S.

I have narrower down the list of banks to the two bigger banks (mainly due to multiple branch locations in the US), I am interested in hearing anyone's experiences with these banks (basic reviews, insights, and ultimately experiences (good and the bad)) in order to pick the bank for the personal checking/savings account for rental property. Of course this account will be separate from my main personal account for tax ease, etc.

I am ultimately looking for:
- Website (easy and direct to the point use)
- App (easy to use, has access to all the banks options, can see deposits and pending transactions at all times) 
- Great Credit Card Interest rates (to include cash back, points, etc)

I look forward to hearing everyone's input.

Chase has benefits for military/Veterans.  We get Premier for free- no monthly fees, free personal checks, free cashiers checks, etc. They also seem to have good 'cash back' credit cards. 

Wells Fargo has done some seriously shady stuff. Yuck.
