House Hacking in NYC area - Willing to share your experience?

[Olivia Evans]

Hey everyone,

Any stories to share on house hacking experiences within the NYC area (Queens, Brooklyn, Manhattan, or Jersey City)? Especially as of recently? When I say stories I mean along the lines of...

1. When did you make your purchase?
2. How'd you finance if not via FHA loan?
3. What was the state of the property when you bought it in? (rent ready or in need of rehab)
4. Anything else you can share with regards to this?

Thanks in advance :)
