Occupancy Requirements for VA and other govt loans

[David Arnold]

So I kind of have a special situation here, and after reading the occupancy req's for VA loans am still a little confused. Basically I work for a company at corporate headquarters, which I consider my "home town", but I get sent out for extended assignments ranging from a few months up to a year. If I were to purchase a MFH with this loan, live in it while I'm in the home office, but have an apartment for when I'm on assignments, would this satisfy the requirement for living there for at least one year after financing?
