Won’t give all the details for privacy issues.  

The only concern I have is that once I move into the SFH, I wouldn't be able to get any return from it until I moved out, unless I rent the other rooms out, which i'd rather not do just for privacy reasons. 

Pascal:Not all provinces in Canada use judicial foreclosure - about half use contractual power of sale.You are not going to find the lists and websites of forthcoming foreclosures here in Canada due to both privacy law and the regulatory/compliance obligations of the lender ... that and mortgage default is less common here.Here you will typically find out about a foreclosed property or mortgage sale a few weeks before the auction when it is published in a local newspaper or the Royal Gazette (or equivalent) for the province.When you see a listing on MLS or Kijiji which indicates the property is a foreclosure, that property likely has already been to auction - and didn't sell - and was subsequently listed with a real estate agent.

People who WFH often want a space other than their bedroom for taking zoom calls so they have privacy and a change of scenery.

As far as I know, due to privacy laws this cant even be done in Canada so it makes the process a bit harder.

As long as Airbnb and other STR platforms protect their privacy, what can they do about it?!

I’m ok spending more if there’s some benefit to it- like privacy and being able to sleep at night. 

House Hacking a MultifamilyPros: - A defined living space - When you are in one unit in a multifamily property, you likely have more privacy, overall safety, and more peace of mind. - Ability to renovate while living there - If you're handy, you can renovate a unit WHILE living in it, which is the ultimate hack in my opinion.
