I am a long-term investor with a buy and hold property in Brooklyn, NY and I also own multiple lands in Florida and Mississippi.

If that's the case, you'll want to start with a fix and flip (or hold) type of loan, complete your renovations, get it rented out and THEN refinance into a DSCR loan for a long term hold.
