Is this correct?

I would like to know if the following sentence is correct:

With regard to your visiting(should it be visit or visiting) I would like to inform you about my plans.

Hi, We do not often start a sentence with the idiom with regard to . The following may sound better: With reference to your visit (of * mm/dd/yyyy ), I would like to inform you about my plans. *Substitute mm/dd/yyyy for the actual date, and remove the parenthesis.

My doubt is if I can say 'your visiting' instead of 'your visit' like 'my leaving'.
