Duplex in North Bergen/Weehawken Area
Curious if anyone has any insight or experience with Duplexes in the North Bergen area. Currently rent in Hoboken and looking to purchase first home. My wife wants to purchase a SFH and I want to build rental property portfolio, so it seemed like a good compromise could be a duplex where we could live in one unit and rent out other unit while building some equity and updating the property.

@Prem Schoff I think housing hack is one of the best ways to reduce living cost. For primary home, I like the area close to James J. Braddock Park. The houses there are very well maintained.
