In general my recommendation for folks who don't have all their liabilities covered by passive income is that they shouldn't ever sell a cash flow generating property. 

We obviously can touch our IRA money now; we just don't want to pay taxes yet for a few more years.We want to grow the company to generate more income. 

@Amanda Malson,As a general rule, flip income is ordinary self-employment income, not capital gains.  

300 pieces will only generate a few calls.  

I have a buyer client who is self-employed and has hard time qualifying for a loan.

I work overseas and file tax returns ( excellent credit) but I find that lenders shy away from lending for investment properties or equity lines on investment properties especially when my overseas employer doesn't provide w2s.Do you think I should continue buying when I have cash, start flipping or look for lenders ?

For 2015, you can also contribute up to $53,000 to your Solo 401k, of which $18,000 can be allocated as Roth contributions.Qualifying to set up a Solo 401k entails the following:The presence of self-employment income, andHaving no full-time employees, defined as those, besides the business owner and his or her business partner and/or spouse, working more than 1,000 hours per year.

I'm wondering if it boils down to just mapping out an investment strategy and meeting with as many contacts as possible to try and generate interest?

I'm am a recently graduated, working professional looking to generate passive income through real estate investing.

They generate attention but I admit I have a high failure rate of not following through.Frank
