Hello,

Firstly I would like to commend the manish/jagoinvestor forum for helping folks like us getting better at financial planning. thx for your time.

My requirement : Need to park funds for buying house in next 2-3 years. Based on short discussion with couple of folks, I am planning to park these in short term funds.

However to be honest I have no clue how to decide which fund. I can look at returns for past 5 years or so, credit quality. What all to look at?

One advidor suggested following options:

HDFC high interest STP

ICIC Pru short term

SBI short term

but if I look at cirisl/valuereasearch ranking wise these are low… and Tata short term bond fund seems high…

Please provide your expert advise specially which can help me pick funds next time :).

Amount: ~3-5 lakhs

thanks.
