About to “really” start

[Dan Brogan]

I’m very excited to be part of this group and looking forward to learning more quickly with the benefit of everyone’s experience here. 
I’ve been researching how to invest and started looking at properties that fit what I’m looking for, I’ve finally started the financial step and I’m doing things like actually posting for the first time here :)

I have my HELOC in process. I got prequalified for a mortgage amount. I'm not certain I want to use a mortgage, I may wait to find the perfect property I can fix up and start renting strictly with my HELOC.

I did NOT expect to get flooded with phone calls the day after I got pre qualified for a second mortgage. does anyone have any tips on how to put a stop to these or do I have to let them run their course?  One of the callers told me he got my info from it going out on Experian when they ran my credit check. 

Any advice?

Any other advice on going BRRRR to start or getting an easy win and buying a turnkey property? I want BRRRR but I keep reading I should go for a slam dunk on the first property.

Thanks!

Dan
