Hi All, I am trying to find good short term investments for a shorter 5-6 year duration. Hoping to buy a house then. Any suggestions?
I am considering fixed income investments - like the Vanguard Long-Term Corporate Bond ETF or the Vanguard LifeStrategy Income Fund (though that is low yielding.)
I don't know a ton about fixed income... so would love your thoughts, particularly in light of a potential recession.
Thank-you in advance!

I asked a similar question on this forum and I think thebrofessor recommended going with vanguard wellesley.
Everyone talks about saving for retirement by buying the S&P 500 in your 401k, but I'm always confused on how people save for short-term goals and stuff like buying a house.

My issue is that almost everything performed poorly last year (i.e. stocks, bonds, etc)... And supposedly things will get worse with the upcoming recession. … but safe cash investments like CDs and savings accounts barely beat inflation - providing only 2- 2.5% annually...
Anyone heard of the real estate investing platform - Fundrise?
bump.. anyone?
