Using AirBnB and Rental Arbitrage in Downtown Area

[Zach Gulbransen]

Hello,

I'm looking to rent an apartment in downtown Minneapolis, MN, and put it in AirBnB. The apartments are exceptional high-end living spaces and are quite expensive to rent. What's the best way to ask the leasing agent or apartment owner if you can AirBnB a unit you rent from them? Do you think this is something they'd be okay with or not so much?

Ideally, I could rent two units in the same complex and live in one and Airbnb on the other. That way I could easily manage the unit that will be listed on AirBnBnB and perform any cleaning/maintenance/ issues that come up. 

Thanks, looking forward to any feedback!
