This is the hangup here, the owner in this case is not living on the property. Cambridge added this part to prevent people from buying up housing to use as short term rental investments.

Mmm, fair enough. I'd guessed that the "manager" may be considered "operator", but neglected to consider the ownership part in that line.

Right, this is where it felt unclear. The operator in this case may be the manager/tenant. So possibly legal (but still lame).
