. :)I totally get it and in this case it works for us because we already have the loan closed on our next house we are moving into and it's not a VA loan.

I moved in with no heat, no water, and a very poor electrical situation but by this time i was working for my mentors construction company and had an abundance of resources at my disposal.

So if you refinance the first home into a conventional, then buy another home and move into it you can use your VA benefit.

Just moved to Dallas and my husband and I will be investing/flipping.

I suggest you move on to more credible sources IMHO

I've noticed that is the case and they haven't really been making effective moves in getting the properties rented any time soon.

If he is moving to another home and WILL LIVE THERE.  

I think you left out a key piece of info.

Depending on the situation and how much equity they have you may need to pay them moving money or even cash out some of their equity.

You could aim to get the studious, low key, chill type of tenant as opposed to the rambunctious party animals typically found in a college setting thus avoiding the types of "confrontation" that are likely to come with the latter.
