Hello,

Here’s the question: Are 2 sets of full by bull bunk beds too big for a single room?

Context: I am furnishing my first STR. I have a 2 bed one bath that I am preparing. I'll have a king size bed in one room and I was considering 2 sets of full over full bunk beds for the other room. This room is 13' 11" x 11' 5". But I am second guessing whether 2 bunks is too much for the room. The room is pictured below. What are your thoughts?

Greatly appreciate any of your thoughts and feed back.

 Sent you a DM.

 Thanks John.

 I have. I may self-manage for a time, but ultimately I wouldn't have an issue handing over that responsibility. 

I went to the planning and Design Office yesterday. We’re good! 

Hello,

I am a few months away from renovations being completed on a STR/AirBNB. Very excited. I'd like this to be more passive. Could anyone recommend a co-host based in Louisville or who services Louisville?

Much appreciated.

Any short term rental folks facing regulation?

I am monitoring the Louisville, Kentucky market and the proposed regulations.

I am new to the STR space. After reviewing the proposed STR ordinances, I should be able to skate by. But I know there have to be concerns out there.

Thoughts or comments from anyone facing regulation?

Here are the proposed ordinances in Jefferson County/Louisville, KY:

Since it's my primary residence I wouldn't need a CUP under the current Jefferson County Ordinance. If I did, my application would be rejected under the county's 600 ft radius rule. But I can still register the STR since it's my primary.

I just went under contract yesterday on my first property.

I am very excited. 

It’s a duplex located near the University of Louisville and walking distance from Churchill Downs, home of the Kentucky Derby. I had originally thought that I would simply house hack the “traditional” way. But wondering what others thoughts are about house hacking via short term rental? The property will be undergoing a total renovation with a 203k loan. So interested in hearing other’s thoughts. 

Thanks!
