Mini split system BTU question

I am planing to use mini split system as the sole heating source for my two family home ( total square foot is 3600 including basement) . Unit 1 is 1/2 of basement and entire garden level. Unit 2 takes up 2 and 3 floors. Is 30k 4 zone system good enough for 2 bedrooms, living + kitchen area and basement in unit 1? Will 48k 5 zone unit provide enough heat for 3 bedrooms, living room and kitchen in unit 2? Should I use one system for each unit or one system for each floor? What is the pros and cons? Thank you so much!

Your contractor must do heat loss calculations and answer your questions. There is no answer until your house is measured and evaluated.
