You have that hustle to make it happen, which is a key factor in riding any down turn.

I could HI Kevin,This transition that you're asking about above is extremely important to transition smoothly and plan for because it will ensure your subsequent VA use for additonal purchases.Once the current property is refinanced with a non VA loan this will free up your entitlement for additional use.The max conv limit in Ventura county Ca is 672,750 and the max loan limits for a high balance loan can go up to 95%.So what this means is theoretically you could refinance up to 672,750 loan amount with an appraisal as low as 708,158 dollars or higher before your loan is subject to jumbo/non conventional guidelines (much tougher to qualify for and has lower LTV's).The VA loan has some key features that other loans dont have:- a trade off of no monthly PMI but the upfront PMI is huge, equivalent to 2.15 - 3.30 Points (borderline hard money points).

They key is figuring out what YOUR goals are and how to execute.

I am also considering out of state turn-key investments in better cash flow markets. 

By the way, if you just want to pull equity out of your current home - I got a 90% LTV home equity line from Key Bank (they go even higher than 90%!)
