Default Re: Where would you save your money to build a house downpayment?

That is part of my plan. Since I don't know when I'll buy a house or how much money I'll need, I feel like it's best to make the maximum contribution to my Roth each year. But I put a portion of it in a money market within the Roth so it is more stable for the short term. If I don't need it, it will continue to grow tax free, and If I do need it, my contributions are available penalty free. Once I am debt free, I'll save more in a HIS to minimize the amount I need to take out of my Roth.
