Airbnb investment Chicago

Hi BP members, 

I am reaching out because I have a property for rent and am not getting qualified prospective tenants. I am looking at the option of using it as an Airbnb. I have heard mix results about airbnb and was wondering if this would be considered a good property for an airbnb. This is a brick 4 bed room 2 bath plus Jacuzzi and garage about 15 minutes from Ohare aiport. The property has all new utilities but no furniture. Am not sure what adequate furniture would be since different contributors on BP have totally different experienes and I would need financing for the furniture so its important to figure out. I even thought about used furniture ???

Well considering it is snowing right now as I type this...how far would you walk before you over looked a property when one is doing an online search? The Train is always much more desirable than buses. I think a mile is fine anymore might be pushing it
