Renting out individual rooms in a Single family home

[Mark Connolly]

I am considering renting out individual rooms in a four room two bath house in Hermitage, Tennessee. That is near Nashville for those not from the area. My question is can I do that? Do I have to have to have an entire house renter that is allowed to sublet, or can I rent the rooms out as a landlord that is not living on the premises? Thank you in advance for any response to my questions. ~Mark Connolly
