The lady who does all our title work stopped in to see me today.

The lady that owns it now only rents it out for the high demand summer months, do you think if we do the marketing and target fisherman and hunters we could get it rented for the other months at a more discounted rate?

I have another lady that if a week goes by and she hasn't received a solid applicant she is dropping the rents.. 

Ladies and Gentlemen of the Bigger Pockets Community, thank you for taking the time to entertain my elementary question.  

This is because we have agents and sellers who're gambling with the current market and trying to attain REHABBED property sales numbers.

And what I did in all my years in CA.. is I simply close on the deals then resold.. and you NEED to disclose your a principal and licensed.. and that's no biggee one line in the contract..but I think a lot of this is situatational.. if you had an agent telling little old lady here nice clean Rancher in Santa Rosa that is worth 600k is only worth 400k and you resell with doing little to nothing and make 200k.. that will be frowned upon.You take a house that is falling down  extreme hoarder   bare land other types you can be more liberal with value interpretations. and unconcienable profits.

Lady had like 4 lemur-looking pets... no joke.  

Im not suggesting anything about your intentions but it should be mentioned that lending is no longer comparable to gambling. 

On the other hand, I recently had another tenant move out -- an elderly lady who had a small dog and a son nearby who helped greatly with the rental -- and the house was immaculate.

Buying a property that you know would be cash-flow negative from the start is gambling on appreciation.
