Hey Welcome to the real estate investing world, In my opinion you do not need much capital to begin wholesaling the most of your marketing dollars in the beginning will go towards direct mail campaign ( These can get a bit expensive but the return is great if done right )  So i would suggest getting your feet wet with wholesaling before jumping right in and spending massive dollars on marketing and just start with getting some bandit signs to attract buyers/sellers , and building a website to attract leads also and build from there.

You can use an FHA 203k loan which is a rehab loan with a higher interest rate that is designed for properties that need significant amounts of work.

All units are 4 bed / 1 bath with 10-12 designated parking spots.

@Scott DillardI think you're really on to something here, my one suggestion is to come up with at least one more buying scenario ... you want them to take something, just design scenarios that work for you, and let it rip.

Has anyone out there worked with branding their properties (specifically with a certain aesthetic, design feature, or actual signage)?

I am getting close to retirement so the installment sale is attractive. 

I'm primarily in smaller multi-family properties and haven't had any real interest in the student market.The prices are very attractive.

If there are you might not attract quality tenants as you cannot control how other landlords operate around you which is why I want full control of a development.

To mitigate your costs instead of mailing from overseas contact a Every Door Direct Mailer company, you will pay less postage and have a company print the flyers you designed.

An IRA that you inherited would have to be transferred into "Inherited IRA", it would be named in the name of the original owner of the IRA and you will be designated as the beneficiary. 2) I do not believe so, you would have to pull out RMD from an inherited IRA.3) You will be required to get the valuation of your IRA (which comes from all of the assets that you IRA owns), and depending on the provider you might be required to get the appraisal, while others would access value from a CMA.Hope this helps.
