My main goal is to invest in real estate in the future, but I want to understand how everything works first.

The main issue with rental basement is water if it has water issue usually it is a simple fix .Clean gutters ,discharge gutter  water away 10" away from foundation, make sure you foundation soil is slopped away from it .If you need to buy soil get a clay mix .Cut back any tree too close to the foundation look at the drip line that's how far the limbs are out from the tree .If all that is done still has water buy a sump pump  carry the water to day light away from foundation 10" to 15" .

The funds would be better purposed on more turnkey real estate, but good luck.

My assumption has been DSCR is the main driver, coming from my institutional experience (larger deals) we usually target a 1.2 and over DSCR.

That is one of the main areas we serve in CT.
