If you own at Shores of Panama in Panama City Beach, I'd like to ask a few questions about HOA management and revenue in a typical season. 

If you are buying it as an investment property, you are buying it at a much higher rate than a traditional owner-occupied loan so you must be in a primary residence now and are just planning a just-in-case scenario.At first, I thought this was a no-brainer answer as if you can do whatever you want, but those investment loans are banking on the income projected as part of the collateral for the loan so it's a good question.A seasoned lender or someone who has had to move back into one of their properties will get you the best answer.

Yours may be, so if you can make your PITI in rent, then putting a tenant in the house and having the lease end at the beginning or middle of selling season could make a lot of sense.

I wonder if that will continue once the season kicks off again...

Is there a good or bad season to start flipping a house (ie houses are cheaper during this time of year, or they sell more during this time of year etc)?

Whether you are new to investing or an old seasoned pro, I think you will find Jeff's no-nonsense approach to investing to be very unique and safe. 

However, I've probably missed the best season to put someone new in the house. 

Most manufacturers will increase prices just before the building season (March time frame for KC).

She claimed she had done all these short sales but couldnt figure out how to legally manuever around the whole 90 day seasoning issue lenders like to use.

I would buy a diversified portfolio of performing notes that are well seasoned and have good LTV ratios.Should be able to get 150k a year in income off that but you will pay taxes.
