Where to House Hack when commuting to New York City

[Al Costanzo]

Hi Everyone,

I am curious where the best place to buy right now, in regards to cash flow a property can produce, for someone commuting into the city. I am open to anywhere within 45-60 min of Manhattan. I want to house hack to eliminate my rent and to start gaining equity in a house as I live their for free (hopefully). I know a lot of markets in the New York area are not cash flowing very well. I was hoping someone knew of some markets that are better than others. Also, in regards to what states is best for to buy properties, CT, NJ, NY? 

Thank you!
