I am at the beginning of remodeling a multi-family house and looking for assistance/opinions on renting out garden unit at AirBnb once rehab is done.The house is build before 1920s and has two condos (1st and 2nd floor).

We’d have a regularish house, a few acres (maybe more), gardens, alpacas, chickens. 

Purchase price: $7,800,000 124 unit Garden Style apartment community located near Oklahoma State University in Stillwater, OK.
