@Brenden Mitchum is correct about the owner-occupancy requirement, but if you are planning to househack at first, a couple of points to consider:1) A 0% down VA loan makes it difficult to cash flow, if that's what you're looking for, even with a great interest rate2) The VA funding fee is waived if you are a DISABLED veteran (ask your title co)3) you can put closing costs on the end of the loan in many cases4) Using your VA entitlement for a property you intend to convert to an investment means it won't be available to use in the future if you want to use it to buy a primary residence, until you sell or refinance out of the VA loan.Welcome to BP, you'll love it!

@Dale Miller not sure who you’re talking to, or if these are really inexpensive properties (under $100k value).I’m doing a deal for a client purchasing new primary and pulling cash out of existing primary and converting to rental. 2.92% fixed 30yr on new primary purchase, and cash-out refi on old primary (now considered investment property so I can give him income credit for 75% market rent) at 3.5%.
