House hacking in San Diego using VA loan.

[Julian Pacheco]

Hello, everyone!

I am new to the site but have been listening a long time. I've been in the Navy 8 years and own a home in Va beach that rents pretty well. I would like to do the same thing here and live in the unit. Since I have a VA loan in Virginia I know I have a cap on what I can buy here in SD. I have considered both Multi-family and single family. Currently, I am thinking of viewing a property that is about 600k. I have reached out to a agent here in the past but that was before I knew about the bigger podcast forums. I'm here looking for help with financing questions like what to expect as far as interest rate if I have around a 800 credit score and how much I am eligible for since it will be my second time using the VA loan. Additionally, I wanted to hear people's advice on whether I should continue with the agent I reached out to last year or if I should find a new agent that understands my intentions to house hack. Thanks everyone!
