💡 Pro Tip — Dallas Residents

Dallas has solid options but local institutions max out around 4.00%. If you’re a member of America’s Credit Union or meet the $10K minimum, that 13-month CD at 4.00% is a strong local play. NexBank is Dallas-based (downtown HQ) and consistently competitive for larger deposits. Ciera Bank’s 3.95% 3-month CD is worth considering if you want flexibility soon. For most people though, Raisin’s 4.30% online CD with just $1 minimum is the unbeatable move — and Texas zero state income tax means you keep it all.
