STR start up for owner occupied property in

[Kerry G.]

Im back on bigger pockets after a long hiatus; trying to start up a STR from a owner occupied 2 family home with intent to advertise on furnished finder. Been getting nowhere with zoning laws found online and in the local library for Yonkers (in westchester county) as to whether any permits are needed in order to operate such a business.

Anyone in the community who is already operating STR in the Westchester county area who can share their experience with starting a STR specifically if any particular permit is needed to operate such a business out of an owner occupied residential unit? also did you create a business entity for this operation and how did you go about that?

Any help with this is much appreciated!
