Buying first home and looking for investment advice

[Gerardo Juarez]

Hello,

Me and my brother are wanting to buy our first home together in Fort Worth, TX. We have saved up around $20k and have no big expenses or loans. We are interested in this being an investment instead of a forever home. My main questions are the following:

What kind of investment strategy should we do? (BRRRR, House Hack, Flip, etc)

What kind of mortgage should we be seeking? (FHA, Traditional, 15-year/30-year)

How do I find banks to inquire about a interest rates and submit pre-approvals?

What are the efficient steps to go about this? (Find a home first or get pre-approved and then find a realtor?)

I'm sorry if there questions are dumb but a lot of this stuff I have been reading can get confusing. If there are any videos I should watch or any beginner threads I should read please feel free to share them.

Thank you!
