Depending on how busy the office will dictate one on one time with customer service.

@Joe A. ah, so I think it's probably going to depend mostly on your closing timeframe. 

proper notice to enter is usually defined by the state as 24 hours notice. some states require 48. that is your starting point. that being said, coming through with a high amount of showings can be considered as disrupting the tenants right to peaceful enjoyment of their home. if you plan on coming through with one or two, you should be ok (legally) to give tenant prior written notice and come in regardless of their objections. if you think it may take multiple showings, you are likely better off to work with the tenant to set up a block of time for an open house. in extreme situations, you can consider offering a gift card to a local restaurant or movie theater to get them out. the tricky part is striking a balance between what is legal, entering with proper notice, and what is fair and reasonable, since the tenant can purposely leave the house an extreme mess to make it harder to re-rent, badmouth you to potential renters, and may even try to refuse entry. how you approach will depend on your relationship with tenant.

Most of which direction I'd go will depend on your vesting.

Everyone's situation is different so it really depends on an individuals situation.RE depreciation: Under recent tax changes ALMOST everything is deductible in the year its paid.

It depends on what your primary motivation is.The bottom line is that whether or not you can sell your home to a legitimate and ethical wholesaler is completely dependent upon the asking price and the ARV of the property. 

As everyone has already said it depends but you should always be prepared to protest.

Of course, this all depends on my particular situation, but is there any general advice you can give me to help me get this real estate train rolling? 

There are a lot of options depending on the surface. 

To me it depends how much debt you want to carry.
