Shielding from Wholesalers

[Tucker Cummings]

I picked up my first rental in Dec. 2019, and now have 3 properties. I say that show that it has not taken long AT ALL for both my wife and I to get daily cold calls, texts, mailers, etc. from wholesalers wanting to buy our properties. This does not make me excited to see what's going to happen as we acquire more and scale.

What kind of things can I do to prevent me from getting blown up 24/7? My wife gets more calls from people looking for Albert than I do. And btw, plot twist: her name is not Albert. 

P.S. Let me also say that I have nothing against wholesalers and this not supposed to be a thread to get into "do we like or not like wholesalers." I just want to know how I can reduce the amount of messages, calls and mailers I'm receiving.

@Steve Morris It is legal to wholesale in North Carolina. @Tucker Cummings Getting yourself on the DNC list is one step you can take. Additionally, not sure how you are taking title, but I believe if you can purchase in a trust, and I know that if you purchase in an LLC that offers anonimity, that should help because they won't have an individuals name to skip trace. Also, keep the address that you pay taxes on your properties as a P.O. Box or business address that is not associated with your personal name.
