VA Lenders that will include rental income from a fourplex?

[Jacob Scholes]

I am looking to buy near the California Bay Area while I am stationed here for the US Coast Guard. I have never purchased a home but would like to find a lender that would be willing to include rental income of a live in fourplex towards the loan. Has anybody done anything like this? I dont know the area very well, but Stockton, CA seems to have the most 2-4 unit properties available. I know a few people that live there so I could get local knowledge of the good areas to buy.
