I’m actively analyzing the demographics and rental trends in the area to ensure these upgrades aren’t just attractive but also functional and desirable.

@Heather Bailey When house hacking with a separate rental unit, ensure proper insurance by obtaining landlord or short-term rental coverage tailored for Airbnb activities, in addition to your primary residence policy.

Additionally, you could also check with your insurance provider to confirm there's no active risk and provide that documentation to the lender as reassurance.

Based on a quick answer from Perplexity it seems like there would be no issue with you buying the home and collecting passive income, but you may not be allowed to manage it yourself since that is considered active work.

Often times police departments have policies in place REQUIRING officers to activate body cameras when interacting with the public.

(For a lot of gurus, the education is just a top of funnel entry point for them to then have you find deals for them, invest in their deals, etc)If they are active in real estate themselves, I would ask how much they are making from their RE versus their courses?  

@Marcus Auerbach How many hours of active management per week would you say it realistically takes to manage 50 units yourself?

With that said, I have personally seen a lot of activity in the last two weeks.

My best advice is to align with an active sponsor in a role that embraces your skill set.
