I am saving up for a down payment on a house, estimated goal date summer 2018. I have about $45k in savings (outside of my emergency fund and 401k) to use on the house, and it is just sitting in a bank account earning close to nothing. Has anyone used safe investment strategies for money that you are not trying to invest long term but know that you will need in a relatively short period (i.e. ~1.5 yrs)? Not looking for a huge return obviously, just anything more than 1%. New to investing and any advice would be very useful. TIA.
