Am I required to have a property manager with my VA loan?

[Stephanie Harris]

Good evening,

We bought our home with our VA loan nearly three years ago. We've never rented before, and thus do not have any renting history. We want to buy another house, and rent our current house out. We read that if we want to buy another house (using our VA), that we have to use a property manager and cannot manage this place as a rental ourselves.... because we don't have renting history. This doesn't make sense, so I was curious if anyone knew what this is about.

Thank you!
