No bedroom windows in apartments

Robert Pole

I bought a 3 story building and trying to convert the top 2 floors to apartments and keep the 1st floor and basement retail. My architects are drawing up plans to make 12 apartments but they have 2 of the apartments without bedroom windows. It's legal where the building is but where I'm from I've never seen this. Anyone have any experience with this? Is there a big difference in rent prices and is this something I'm gonna have a hard time renting? Any thought would be appreciated. Thanks

Ask a realtor or property manager in the area, whether a no window bedroom is common, hard to rent etc. sprinklers? Because my concern would be fire egress. That said, i would think it would be ok for a secondary/kids bedroom. Can you put in a sun tunnel? Natural light is nice and a window view is too. But a solid wall is quieter and warmer.
