Conventional/ VA/ FHA limits
I'm looking to get started with a few house hacks. I already own one home which is currently a rental purchased with a VA Loan. I would like to do my next two with FHA and a second VA over the course of the next two years. My question is if either before purchasing the first house hack, or while occupying it, I find another deal I want to use purely as a rental through a conventional mortgage will the number to properties I own impact my ability to get a future VA or FHA loan or is it just done off of my debt to income ratio?

Do "house hack" as a keyword search in biggerpockets and you will see a ton of people who have done this.
