Getting Quotes

Hi everyone, I am a newbie in house flipping. I am wondering if I can have 3-4 contractors to go to the properties at the same time to see and give me an estimate or quote or I should schedule with them one on one. I have a full time job plus 2 little kids, so time is a bit tight. The house just closed today. I need to get it start rehab asap. Thank you in advance for your input.

Being a contractor, I consider it tacky when people do that... so tacky that I will, in fact, turn on my heel and leave. 

I may see things that the other contractors wouldn't. I may have solutions that they don't. I may not feel like sharing those things with the other contractors - only with the client. Or I may have a dramatically different approach to the project that I'd like some of your undivided attention to tell you about.
