What are the problems you encountered on advertising/ selling a property? 

It takes all of our overhead, worker expenses, insurances, trucks, advertising, shop expenses etc.

I recommend setting up keyword alerts for each area as they are discussed in the forums daily with advertisements posted in the BiggerPockets marketplace hourly.One thing to note when looking at the individual markets, you can make or loose money in any market.

@Mark Oviatt with regards your question concerning whether to utilize the exemption under 506(b) or 506(c), this really comes down to whether you want to be able to advertise the offering or not.There are a number of trade offs between 506(b) and 506(c).

Sellers hire brokers for the MLS exposure, pricing advise, negotiating and advertising.  

Wholesaling is not as simple as advertised.

Right now, I'm working a full/slightly more than full time job, doing much of the rehab work myself, managing the handymen that are helping me, purchasing the materials, setting up the bank accounts, managing the money, trying to figure out all of the paperwork for before advertising for a tenant, and listening to the podcast tell me "work your strengths and delegate your weaknesses" plus most everything else.

I would start advertising your rental to avoid any vacancy. 

Unlike just having a self-directed IRA which put restrictions on what you can do, the Self Directed Retirement Plans LLC structure allows you to perform maintenance on the property, advertise for renters, collect and deposit the rent checks, pay the real estate bills, etc.
