<prompt> Human: I just sold my house. Moving my family to a different state. We will be renting for several months while we get settled. Would like to eventually put the money into a new house, but until then...what is the best way for me to maximize this money?  <response>: Since your time horizon is pretty short, go with a high-yield savings account. Anything with a better return will be very risky for that short of a time period.
