Compare that to TPG&#8217;s potential estimated value of 2.05 cents apiece (or greater), and it&#8217;s not necessarily the best deal.<\/p>\n<h3>Shop the Bilt Collection<\/h3>\n<p>The Bilt Collection is a curated list of items, including art, home decor and apparel. The value per point will vary but rarely exceed more than 1 cent per point, so you should likely pass on this option.<\/p>\n<h3>Redeem your points for fitness classes<\/h3>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/thepointsguy.com\/credit-cards\/best-cards-exercise-fanatics\/\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Fitness enthusiasts<\/a> can redeem their Bilt points to attend name-brand classes like SoulCycle, Solidcore, Y7 Studio and Rumble Boxing. The value will depend on the class you select but hovers around just 1 cent per point.<\/p>\n<h3>Pay your rent with points<\/h3>\n<p>A potentially enticing option with your points is to save them to help cover your next rent payment. However, this is only available if you live in a Bilt Rewards Alliance property or opt for check payments. And even worse, the redemption value is just 0.55 cents per point.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Related: <a href=\"https:\/\/thepointsguy.com\/news\/never-redeem-miles-for-this\/\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">5 common purchases you should never redeem miles for<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><a id=\"redeeming-your-bilt-rewards-points-medium-value-options\" class=\"jsx-3480274316 anchor\"\/><\/p>\n<h2 class=\"jsx-3480274316\">Redeeming your Bilt Rewards points: Medium-value options<\/h2>\n<figure class=\"jsx-4252866712 tpg-figure\">\n<div style=\"padding-top:0\" class=\"jsx-36530878 full-width-auto-height-image\"><span style=\"box-sizing:border-box;display:block;overflow:hidden;width:initial;height:initial;background:none;opacity:1;border:0;margin:0;padding:0;position:relative\"><span style=\"box-sizing:border-box;display:block;width:initial;height:initial;background:none;opacity:1;border:0;margin:0;padding:0;padding-top:66.796875%\"\/><img alt=\"\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP\/\/\/yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7\" decoding=\"async\" data-nimg=\"responsive\" style=\"position:absolute;top:0;left:0;bottom:0;right:0;box-sizing:border-box;padding:0;border:none;margin:auto;display:block;width:0;height:0;min-width:100%;max-width:100%;min-height:100%;max-height:100%\"\/><noscript><img alt=\"\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" data-nimg=\"responsive\" style=\"position:absolute;top:0;left:0;bottom:0;right:0;box-sizing:border-box;padding:0;border:none;margin:auto;display:block;width:0;height:0;min-width:100%;max-width:100%;min-height:100%;max-height:100%\" sizes=\"100vw\" srcset=\"https:\/\/thepointsguy.global.ssl.fastly.net\/us\/originals\/2022\/08\/Sold-sign-in-front-of-a-house-in-Chicago-scaled.jpg?width=640 640w, https:\/\/thepointsguy.global.ssl.fastly.net\/us\/originals\/2022\/08\/Sold-sign-in-front-of-a-house-in-Chicago-scaled.jpg?width=750 750w, https:\/\/thepointsguy.global.ssl.fastly.net\/us\/originals\/2022\/08\/Sold-sign-in-front-of-a-house-in-Chicago-scaled.jpg?width=828 828w, https:\/\/thepointsguy.global.ssl.fastly.net\/us\/originals\/2022\/08\/Sold-sign-in-front-of-a-house-in-Chicago-scaled.jpg?width=1080 1080w, https:\/\/thepointsguy.global.ssl.fastly.net\/us\/originals\/2022\/08\/Sold-sign-in-front-of-a-house-in-Chicago-scaled.jpg?width=1200 1200w, https:\/\/thepointsguy.global.ssl.fastly.net\/us\/originals\/2022\/08\/Sold-sign-in-front-of-a-house-in-Chicago-scaled.jpg?width=1920 1920w, https:\/\/thepointsguy.global.ssl.fastly.net\/us\/originals\/2022\/08\/Sold-sign-in-front-of-a-house-in-Chicago-scaled.jpg?width=2048 2048w, https:\/\/thepointsguy.global.ssl.fastly.net\/us\/originals\/2022\/08\/Sold-sign-in-front-of-a-house-in-Chicago-scaled.jpg?width=3840 3840w\" src=\"https:\/\/thepointsguy.global.ssl.fastly.net\/us\/originals\/2022\/08\/Sold-sign-in-front-of-a-house-in-Chicago-scaled.jpg?width=3840\"\/><\/noscript><\/span><\/div><figcaption class=\"jsx-4252866712 figcaption\">You can use your Bilt points toward a down payment on a home.
