what’s the best way to use OPM to buy my first house to rent out?

The house will need new interior everything - plumbing, electrical, kitchen, bathroom, walls, etc. 

I bought it in 2020 and have a 2% interest rate.I’ve been casually looking for an investment property for a while and found a great deal on an ideal AirBnb house a town over in a similar neighborhood/distance to the beach/other attractions.

It comes down to your goals.Because you are house hacking, often times you aren't cash flow positive for a while because of the low down payment.

Can't answer without knowing how noisy it is vs: location, price, rents, condition of side by side or town house

Now today, I learned through the neighbor she currently lives next to that she hasn't kept up the house, has been problematic, and apparently had eviction notices filed by her current landlord.

Long story short a lot of different things have gone wrong with this house but we are not even getting showings at $269,000.

I believe I can choose between a  City Housing Inspector or Authorized Inspector to conduct the inspection.

The challenge for present day investors is with elevated mortgage rates and record high housing prices, the carrying costs and incentive to invest now can be restrictive. 

So I basically would want a person who looks at the whole house and gives me the appraisal cost, the areas that need fixing (ex. kitchen cabinets, tiles, bathrooms, plumbing, electricity, etc.), and how much the cost would be.Then this way, I could decide to proceed or not based on the assessment.
