Installing Ceiling Fan in Old Coop

I am considering installing a ceiling fan in my bedroom where there is presently a light fixture. Has anyone had experience doing so themselves in an 1880′s vintage building? How difficult is it to install the hardware to support a fan? Is this DIY territory for a someone who can do electrical work? Also, any issues re vibration and the tenant upstairs? Thanks.
