Spoke with my lender about the best strategy to complete this, and refinancing the original purchase into a conventional loan seems to be the best way to go about this for several reasons:1) You can take advantage of unforced (market) appreciation2) Longer time to pay down equity naturally simply from occupying.3) High rent appreciation after refinancing and renting4) Can take advantage of tax benefits if you sell later on down the road since you occupied as your primary residenceNow for you if you have equity in the 15-20% threshold from mainly appreciation or principal paydown, I would consider looking to refinance into a conventional loan so you have even more VA eligibility.
