If you have a single family house, can you rent units separately?

[Lance Hendrickson]

If you have a single family house zoned R1, can you rent out the units separately? This is a two-story house with 2bed 1bath and kitchen on both levels. My question would be, if I were to split units with a door would I be able to rent it out as two separate units? Not looking to sell as a duplex, this would be for a rental purpose only. Thanks!
