Smart. I've often thought that would be a great idea. 

And that way (correct me if I'm wrong), you don't get caught by the regulation that forbids AirBnBs, because you are living in the same house.  I believe much of the regulation is caused by the fact that sometimes people hold huge parties in these houses, and the neighbors complain.
