Multiple Buildings - Do banks and the VA allow it?

[Roger Edington]

I have just started so please excuse my ignorance. I am planning on getting started using a VA loan to purchase multi-families. I have found three different instances where more than one building is for sale as a package deal. One property is two identical duplexes next to each other sharing the same well. Another is four small cottages on the same parcel. The last one is a six unit plus a 2-unit near each other. I know I can only go up to 4-units using a VA loan. I am particularly interested in the two duplexes. I just think that either the bank or the VA probably won't allow for separate buildings, but I may be wrong. One last question, I see many properties with a separate lot for sale, with a separate tax ID, does this apply to them as well? Thanks for your advice!
