Switching from Rent by the room to full unit

Hey everyone,

So I closed on my first duplex, 1br/1ba 3br/1ba split. If I decide to rent the 3/1 by the room how difficult will it be to switch to the full unit? It’s most profitable renting by the room but the 3/1 is more like a 2/1 with a laundry unit and no closet in the 3rd so it’s easiest to rent out the whole unit. Id of course like to rent out the place asap but fear if I rush into a rent by the room I’ll have difficulty switching over to renting out the full unit. Any advice?

Thanks!
