can you use a va loan for an investment property

[OGemma]

No, a VA loan is only for purchasing a primary residence and cannot be used solely for investment. You can, however, buy a multi-family property (up to four units), live in one unit, and rent out the others. Once you have occupied your unit for at least a year, you can move out and convert the property into an investment, benefiting from rental income from all units.
