Require them to be a primary residence and majority ownership by the owner to pay less taxes.

Given the vacancy rate in NYC is very low (<1%-3% over the last decade or so), this won’t actually do anything to make it easier to find an apartment for anyone and might just make it harder (by introducing more rules and more small landlords who have more time to be busybodies over micromanaging their tenants in their 10 apartments).
