This Corp will get a fee for the management.That would be a way to convert some passive income to active income.As active income does not have the same tax advantages as passive income you need to carefully weight the benefits that you can gain from a Corp (Many more deductions available, retirement plan contribution) versus the additional cost and taxes.

Conceptually think of house hacking in the NYC metro as a reduction in rent.It all boils down to the numbers, but if the direct property costs (mortgage + insurance + tax + capex/repairs + vacancy) - the income (rental income) is less than your rent, you are effectively saving yourself money, aka "rent saving"I did this in 2014 in Westchester county (different location, different time, different market), but effectively cut my rent in half.Regarding Basit's suggestion, I would follow this ONLY if your cashflow from the other market is greater than the "rent saving" in NYC on a per dollar invested basis.Joe

I truly think they are a league, if not 2+ above your weight. 

You should gain more appreciation, so it’s all a fine balance & you have to weight each and see what’s best for you.
