Best way to make your choice, get quotes for both and while doing so ask the vendors what are the pros and cons to each. Then do the research to verify what they told you is right. Split will be cheaper and central will be more expensive but besides easy comparison, ask about maintenance on each. What the warranty is for each. Now with technology, you can remotely manage split units. 

I'm probably running into this issue with an STR in Kentucky. It has window mounted AC units. I am already leaning towards the split units for 4 rooms. But I am keeping my options open with the central AC unit.

In your case you might want central depending on the size. You would get more value add and more consistent temps. If you need duct work though that would add up. 

Yeah there’s no reason existing duct work and I gotta see what type of space is in the attic. I know that’s where price starts to add up.

Don't wait to put it in an LLC. Just form the LLC preferably in Wyoming. Wyoming does not release who owns the LLC. Most other states allow you to look up who the owners are of said LLC. Check with your lender prior to closing to verify it is ok to put the property into an LLC. Like another post said if it's after the closing, you might be required to refinance your loan to do it.
