House Hacking in NYC

[Antonio Cucciniello]

I am an investor who lives in NYC and owns a few units in NJ.  I don't want to rent any more, but I work full time in Mid town Manhattan. So, my thought process is to figure out how to house hack here.  I am wonder is there anyone that has done this, or are there any realtors out there that know of clients that have done this and broke even? I don't need to cash flow, I just want to save my expensive rent and build towards something.

I am looking to house hack in NYC as well but most 2 families go for around 800 in the up and coming neighborhoods of Brooklyn. I did not check out the Bronx where I hear there are still some better deals to be had.
